Most deserts can be found generally in the 30 degree North & 30 degree South latitudes largely in part because the upper air patterns that are called the Hadley Cellsrise at the Equatorial latitudes and subside (go down wards) and the Horse latitudes which can be found 30 degrees North or South of the Equator. Because the outer edge of the Hadley Cells (away from the Equator) the air descends there is much less weather and the air is much more stable. Therefore there will be less clouds producing less rain at these latitudes (30 degrees N & S). Therefore with very, very dry climates being produced at these Horse Latitudes there will be less soil and rain for growing vegetation and it will mostly be all sand and scrub brush which needs very little rain.
