Which of the following is a katabatic wind that blows from the French Alps towards the Mediterranean Sea?
Mistral
Santa Ana
Chinook
Foehns
Explanation: Katabatic (Fall) Wind: In the winter, areas adjacent to highlands may experience a local wind called a katabatic wind or fall wind. Under the influence of gravity, the cold air cascades over the rim of a highland like a waterfall. Mistral is one of the most famous katabatic winds. Warm, dry winds sometimes move down the east slopes of the Rockies, where they are called chinooks, and the Alps, where they are called foehns. Such winds are often created when a pressure system on the leeward side of the mountains, such as a cyclone, pulls air over these imposing barriers. Another chinooklike wind that occurs in the US is the Santa Ana.
