Short summary
We studied how small mountains shape the daily growth of the lower atmosphere over the Tibetan Plateau, one of the highest regions on Earth. Using computer simulations, we compared flat terrain with realistic terrain and with added winds. We found that even modest hills make the air mix more quickly and rise higher, and winds further strengthen this effect. Our results show that overlooking small terrain features can lead to underestimating how strongly the atmosphere mixes over high plateaus.
