In the USA, the "Hot and Dry" desert biomes experiences less than 10 inches per year. However, I've spoken with more than a few desert museum-type docents, and several believe that less than four inches per year qualifies an area to be considered a desert.

There are three other types of desert to be found in the world. Their stats may vary. For more information, please see the related ink below.
