Changes in weather patterns or in land use can affect desert biomes.

Dry desert climates are formed by high-pressure zones in which cold air masses descend then warm. But heat from the ground evaporates the water again before it can come down as rain. The ground is usually hot from the Sun's rays as these are not attenuated by cloud cover.

Pollution of the reduced water supply, or using the water for farming, are both activities that can put pressure on the plant and animal life in the desert.

Why do people want to use the desert for off road vehicles?

Too many people are not educated in environmental issues and look at the desert as a wasteland. They feel there is nothing to damage or destroy so run their off road vehicles over the fragile desert lands, destroying plants and animals as well as making the area much more susceptible to erosion and flash flooding,
