Spanish term or phrase: se encuentra un volumen montañoso y de tendencia horizontal
I am having a hard time wording this sentence. Any ideas?

En la zona inferior se encuentra un volumen montañoso y de tendencia horizontal. Como la mayor parte del espacio corresponde al cielo, es en ella donde se dibuja el perfil de las formas nubosas.
