the desert is the desert
The desert climate is characterized by low precipitation, high temperatures, and low humidity due to the lack of moisture in the air. In contrast, the UK has a maritime climate influenced by the ocean, resulting in more moderate temperatures, higher levels of precipitation, and greater humidity. These differences are primarily due to variations in geographical location, proximity to bodies of water, and prevailing wind patterns.
The UK receives an average annual rainfall of around 1,154 millimeters (45.4 inches). However, this varies significantly across the country, with areas in the west and north generally experiencing more rainfall than the south and east.
The last significant occurrence of acid rain in the UK was in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Since then, stringent regulations and efforts to reduce emissions have significantly decreased the levels of acid rain in the country.
The UK receives a lot of rain due to its location in the path of prevailing westerly winds from the Atlantic Ocean. These winds carry moisture which is deposited as rain when they meet the cooler air over the UK. The country's topography, including highlands and mountains, also contributes to increased rainfall in certain regions.
The worst period for acid rain in the UK during the 20th century was in the 1970s and 1980s. Industrial pollution, mainly from coal-fired power plants, released sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides into the atmosphere, leading to high levels of acid rain during this time. Legislation and cleaner technology have since helped reduce acid rain in the UK.
because it is more cloudy than all uk.
there isn't one the UK has too much rain
Parts of Shropshire had less than 400mm of rain in 2011. I don't know how that compares with other parts of the UK, but I know that Essex (on average the driest county) had quite a bit more than this.
The Sahara is the closest major desert to the UK.
All of the UK has more than 10" of rain in a year, therefore there are no deserts in UK. I'm not so sure why the teacher asked that question then. I need to discuss.
Yes there are ! Egypt has roughly 50% more people living there than in the UK.
In the south east, < 600 mm of rain falls per year. This is a large contrast to the south of the UK, which has considerably more rain fall per year.
Because we get the majority of our weather from across the Atlantic ocean. The weather systems that arrive at the UK are laden with moisture picked up from the ocean. When the system gets to our shores, it 'dumps' gallons of rain on our land. Additionally, many deserts are closer to the equator than we are - making them hotter places.
because there is more of the object in the states and that is why its more expensive in the UK
The UK has no true deserts.
That would be the Sahara Desert in northern Africa.
Egypt - 79 000 000 UK - 62 000 000 Therefore Egypt has 17 million more people than the UK
