There is no 'Arctic Desert.' The Arctic is primarily sea ice with some land areas of tundra. While tundra shares some characterisitcs with the desert, it is a different biome. Antarctica, however, is true desert and the coldest biome on earth.
No, the temperature in a tundra biome can vary throughout the year. It generally has long, cold winters with temperatures well below freezing and short, cool summers with temperatures just above freezing.
The coldest and driest biome is the tundra. It has low temperatures, with permafrost in the ground, and receives minimal precipitation, mainly in the form of snow. This environment limits plant growth and supports adapted cold-tolerant species.
The desert biome typically has the lowest yearly rainfall of all biome types. Deserts are characterized by arid conditions and receive very little precipitation throughout the year.
