	Climate of the Alps - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The effect of mountain chains on prevailing winds is to carry warm air belonging to the lower region into an upper zone, where it expands in volume at the cost of a proportionate loss of heat, often accompanied by the precipitation of moisture in the form of snow or rain.
		The Subalpine is the region which mainly determines the manner of life of the population of the Alps.
		In the conifer forests of the Alps the prevailing species are the Norway Spruce and the Silver Fir; on siliceous soil the European Larch flourishes.
