don't know but someone should find out.
You actually answered your question. It's called a semi-arid climate or steppe climate. The characteristics of short grasses and low vegetation occurs due to the transitional nature of this climate from desert to humid . Only a small sample of steppe climate are not transitional but created by air currents and topography. A few examples are found in Brazil, the Island of Hispaniola, and East Central Africa.
Well, Iran is quite dry and hot. So most likely Semiarid.Wikipedia describes semi-arid as:" A semi-arid climate or steppe climate describes climatic regions that receive precipitation below potential evapotranspiration, but not extremely so. A more precise definition is given by the Köppen climate classification that treats steppe climates (BSk and BSh) as intermediates between desert climates (BW) and humid climates in ecological characteristics and agricultural potential. Semi-arid climates tend to support short or scrubby vegetation, with semi-arid areas usually being dominated by either grasses or shrubs "
The steppe biome is most likely to be found in the regions of Central Asia, Eastern Europe, and parts of North America. These areas typically have a semi-arid climate with grasslands and few trees. Steppe regions are characterized by vast, flat expanses with moderate temperatures and limited precipitation.

Yes it is a steppe climate/terrain, as is Wyoming.
Air that passes over the steppe in a semiarid climate has lost much of its water vapor as it passes over mountain ranges. Some air that passes over humid continental areas comes from the oceans and does not cross mountain ranges; this air carries more moisture.
