Antarctica is unlike most deserts, because there is no sand there. However, it is arid and desert-like, because the humidity averages about five percent.
There is no exposed soil, no trees, and 98% of the continent is covered with glacial ice.
Antarctica is the driest, windiest, coldest, darkest and highest continent on earth.
