Though many people think of the Arabian desert as miles and miles of arid sand, it is not!
Flat sandy areas and dunes are also there, but also there are areas of flat stoney ground. If water is not too far below the surface, plants may be able to survive, and form an oasis.
The climatic extremes of deserts have made a wide range of landscapes. Sand is made by the erosion of rocks into tiny particles. The huge temperature ranges experienced by most desert regions cause the rocks to expand and contract, eventually cracking in processes of weathering. The smaller rocks that break off are carried by the wind, and sometimes water, and they in turn erode other rocks. Gradually they become so small that they are little grains. The same wind that helps to make sand particles also shapes the landscape in other ways. Given the right conditions, the easily transported grains of sand will make sand dunes. But sand is just one of a number of landscape types to be found in the desert. Rocks and stones feature in most of the world's deserts often with vast plains covered in gravel, or large towering cliffs, eroded into amazing shapes by the action of wind and water.
Each desert has its own topography. Please give a specific desert if you want a specific answer.
That depends on which desert and the spefici location in that desert. It could run from over 200 feet below sea level to several thousand feed above sea level.
Desert Cover Approximately 20% of the planets surface.
