1.) Both biomes have low precipitation.
2.) Both have limited vegetation that has adapted to live with low rainfall.
3.) Both biomes generally have a thin layer of soil with little organic matter.
4.) Both biomes are quite fragile and easily damaged by human activities. Because of the low moisture, it takes many years for damaged areas to repair themselves.

Why can someone die from dehydration in a desert but not in a rain forest at the same temperature?
Well they can in fact die at the same temperature, but it will simply take longer. The reason is, in the rain forest the humidity in the air is much much higher than in the desert. This means that the person will loose water from evaporation much faster in the desert than in the rain forest, which leads to them dying much quicker.
