Deserts often have minimal vegetation and lack consistent water sources, which hinders the formation of soil. Additionally, the arid conditions in deserts lead to limited organic matter production, therefore restricting the development of soil. Wind and water erosion also play a role in preventing soil accumulation in deserts.
Soil erosion is a special concern for deserts and mountain ridges because these areas have limited vegetation to hold the soil in place. The sparse vegetation in deserts and mountain ridges increases the likelihood of erosion by wind or water. Additionally, the steep slopes in mountain ridges can lead to rapid movement of soil during erosion events.
Deserts have poor soil because of low precipitation, which leads to nutrient depletion. Rainforests have poor soil because of rapid nutrient cycling caused by heavy rainfall and quick decomposition, which results in nutrients being washed away before plants can use them.
In hot deserts, soil is typically sandy, rocky, and dry with low organic matter content. The soil is often nutrient-poor and lacks moisture due to high temperatures and low rainfall, making it challenging for plants to grow without adaptations to conserve water. Additionally, the high evaporation rates in hot deserts can lead to salt accumulation in the soil, further impacting plant growth.
Desert soil is typically formed through a combination of weathering processes, such as wind erosion, water erosion, and chemical weathering. These processes break down rocks and minerals into smaller particles over time, creating the sandy and nutrient-poor soil found in deserts. The lack of vegetation in deserts also contributes to the slow formation of desert soil.
Nothing.
Yes there is sandy soil in many deserts.
Most deserts have fertile soil but need irrigation to grow plants.
Deserts are dry, hot, And have sandy soil. These are climatic variables that all deserts have in common.

Sand only covers about 20% of deserts. The rest are covered by ice, soil or rock.
Not all deserts are hot. Some are because of lack of water and vegetation and the lighter soil

Ireland is a fertile country so the soil is there. It doesn't have to be got from anywhere. There are no deserts in Ireland, so there is lots of soil in Ireland.
Yes. Because the sandy soil is from the biggest sandy ocean that float in the sea ♥
There are actually two kinds of deserts - hot deserts and cold deserts, However, cold deserts is further subdivided into: Polar Deserts (eg: Antarctica) Cold Winter Deserts (eg: Gobi Desert) Cool Coastal Deserts (eg: Atacama Desert)
