Deserts

The Thar Desert covers all or parts of the Indian states of Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana and Gujarat.

It can get incredibly hot in the deserts of Nevada. It can get to be up to 130 or more degrees Fahrenheit.

Each desert has its own statistics so you need to specify which desert you are referring to. There is no general answer to your question. It could be minus 128 degrees F. to as high as nearly plus 150 degrees F.

A desert has little vegetation and rainfall.

There are desert areas in all seven continents of the world, although Europe is the only continent not to have a major desert. Deserts are not only hot dry places but they could be cold dry places as well, such as the deserts in Antarctica. In fact, a desert is only defined as a dry place receiving little precipitation.

There are no deserts in Massachusettes.

There are no deserts in Massachusetts.

In some deserts, particularly the cold winter deserts or North America, there are sage plants. However, it is more common in areas with more rainfall.

no it is not

The Sahel is a particularly drought-prone area, and this increases the process of desertification, meaning the way a desert grows. Between 1968 and 1973, Africa was hit by a particularly bad drought which made the already vulnerable Sahel prone to desertification. Human activities also caused erosion, adding to the problem. During the last few decades the Sahel has expanded southward again according to satellite imaging and local reports. This has been due to the government's efforts at reforestation. Unfortunately, the Sahara has also followed in its wake.

Neither. It is incredibly hot.

There are no true deserts in Oklahoma.

Deserts are found on every continent of the world, including some small patches of semiarid land in Europe. Most deserts are found on the leeward side of mountain ranges. The mountains prevent moisture from moving over the leeward side and, thus, deserts form.

Deserts are characterized by low precipitation levels, typically less than 10 inches (25 cm) of rain per year. There are several reasons for this:

Location: Deserts are mostly located in areas where the prevailing winds lose most of their moisture before reaching the land, or the land is located in the rain shadow of high mountain ranges. This is why most deserts are found along the western coasts of continents, such as the Atacama Desert in Chile, the Namib Desert in Namibia, and the Mojave Desert in the western United States.

High pressure systems: High pressure systems, also known as anticyclones, often form over deserts and prevent clouds from forming, resulting in clear skies and little rainfall.

Temperature: Deserts are also characterized by high temperatures, which can cause the air to rise rapidly, leading to the formation of high clouds that do not produce rain.

Evaporation: The high temperatures in deserts can also cause the ground to dry out quickly, leading to high rates of evaporation, which can further reduce the amount of moisture available for precipitation.

Lack of vegetation: Vegetation can play a role in the water cycle by helping to retain moisture in the soil, which can then be released into the air through a process called transpiration. However, in deserts, there is very little vegetation, which means that there is less moisture available for precipitation.

Seasonal weather patterns: Some deserts are seasonal, meaning they receive rain only during certain months, while others are perennially dry. This is the case of the Sahara Desert and Arabian Desert, that receive the majority of the rain during the summer months.

Both the Atacama and the Sechura Deserts are on the west coast of South America.

Yes, millions of people live in the Sonoran Desert in cities and towns. A few examples:

Phoenix. Arizona

Tucson, Arizona

Hermosillo, Mexico

People in the desert may work at any job found outside the desert. They may be doctors, lawyers, teachers, nurses, police, clergy, shop owners, grocers, fast food workers, mechanics, farmers, ranchers, etc.

The spreading of a desert is called desertification.

The Amazon River of South America is the second longest river in the world after the Nile. However, it is the largest river in the world when total volume of water is considered. The question is inaccurately worded. Antarctica is considered by many scientists to be the driest region on earth. Others consider the Atacama Desert of South America to be equally as dry.

There are a number of carnivores in the Sonoran Desert:

Coyote

Cougar

Jaguar

Bobcat

Fox

Black Bear

Eagles

Snakes

Owls

The Atacama is located between the Andes Mountains and the Pacific Ocean.

There is no desert in Australia called the Great Australian Desert,

The Thar Desert is located in parts of India and Pakistan.
