Earth's major deserts are primarily found around 30 degrees north and 30 degrees south latitude. These regions, known as the subtropical high-pressure zones, experience descending air that inhibits cloud formation and precipitation. This results in the arid conditions characteristic of deserts. Examples include the Sahara Desert at 30°N and the Atacama Desert at 30°S.
