The climate of the UAE is desert-influenced, with little rain in the winter months and long hot summers. Vegetation throughout the country is dominated by arid zone species, since none of the hills in the east and north are high enough to counter the summer heat.

Edaphic factors concern the soil. This is generally poor throughout the UAE and consists typically of subkha, sandy or rocky areas lacking particularly nitrogen. Wind erosion of the surface is also a factor inhibiting vegetational spread.

Biotic factors are those concerned with other disturbances. These include over cutting by man (for fuel, timber, thatch, Fencing, medicinal purposes and food), over grazing by wild and domestic animals, fires, and any other form of damage.

The UAE is basically a desert, most of the vegetation is desert-like, zerophytes and halophytes. In some of the wadi areas there is more dense and diverse vegetation as there is more water available in these areas.

Naturally occurring trees are sparse and mainly the indigenous Ghaf tree.

Due to development there are also fairly large landscaped areas throughout the Emirates, characterized by parks and roadside plantings; most of these are irrigated through recycled "grey" water
