Most of the world's major desert regions are associated with high-pressure systems that inhibit cloud formation and precipitation. These areas are typically found around 30 degrees north and south of the equator, where descending air creates arid conditions. Additionally, factors such as rain shadow effects from nearby mountain ranges and cold ocean currents can further contribute to desertification. Consequently, deserts are often characterized by extreme temperatures and low humidity.
