How are deserts and steppes different?
Their both arid regions but the main difference is steppes are high altitude plateaus and receive a little more rainfall, enough to typically sustain grass and possibly short hardy trees and shrubs such as in Mongolia or Western China. They tend to be cold regions with short summers as well. Deserts receive little rainfall, or the bulk of their rain during the summer when it's hot and may receive it suddenly where a lot of it flows away in gullies. Deserts can be at high or low altitude, behind or on the leeward side of mountains (Nevada,Utah,Arizona), along coasts w/ cold ocean currents (Mexico,Chile, Peru) and deserts can be hot by day and cold by night (Sahara) or cold most of the year as in Antarctica or Mars.
