Deserts

Ocotillo only grow leaves after a good rain. This helps them to conserve moisture. If no rain comes later, they then drop their leaves and wait for more moisture before they once again grow new leaves. This can happen several times during the growing season.

Sand dunes do blow away it is just that more sand is blown on to it faster then it is blown off.

There are several differences between woods and desert. One major difference is trees. Another is that deserts are typically very dry, while forests need to have consistent access to water in order to keep the plants alive. Deserts often also have plants (not all of them are pure sand), but the plants are things that can survive with inconsistent water, like cacti.

Many deserts have industries. The largest industry is probably mining. There tend to be few factories in deserts because they are generally not near good sources of water, ports, or available labor.

The Painted Desert is located in northeastern Arizona.

Semi-arid regions are usually grasslands and receive more rain that a desert. They frequently border a desert and are sometimes a transition zone between a desert and another biome such as a forest.

The climate is extreme: annual temperatures can range from near-freezing (32 degress F) in the winter to more than 50 degrees C (122 degrees F.) during the summer.

Cheetahs generally don't live in deserts. There's not enough prey there.

If there is prey, they might.

In an oasis, you can typically find a variety of plant species that thrive in arid conditions. Common plants include date palms, which provide shade and fruit, along with grasses, reeds, and various shrubs that are adapted to the moist environment created by underground water sources. Additionally, some oases may feature other fruit-bearing trees like figs and pomegranates, as well as desert-adapted plants that help maintain the local ecosystem.

A desert is any area that is barren, desolate, dry and lacks vegetation. Most people don't realize that the Antarctic is considered a desert as it meets all of these specifications. When a wet, fertile area within a desert exists, it is referred to as an oasis.

the biggest desert in India is the Thar desert

The Sahara is the largest desert outside of Antarctica.

Yes, Las Vegas is in a desert in Nevada.

"Las Vegas" means "the meadows". It originally got that name because there was at least some water, and therefore some vegetation, in that particular location, but the surrounding area is indeed pretty dry.

An oasis is an area in the desert where ground water reaches the surface as a spring. This allows more plants to flourish compared to the surrounding desert.

There is no Pyrenees Desert. There are, however, the Pyrenees Mountains. The Pyrenees is a range of mountains in southwest Europe that forms a natural border between France and Spain.

The Antarctic Desert is the largest desert in the world. The Sahara is the largest hot desert.

The Gobi Desert is cold desert. The average rainfall is 7.6 in per year. The annual mean temperature is 27 F, January mean temp is -15.7 F, July's is 63.5 F and the extremes are between 100 F and -46 F

The process that forms desert pavement is called deflation.

Some scientists say the Atacama Desert of South America is the driest desert. Others say the honor goes to the Antarctic Desert.
