Sahara Desert

The Sahara Desert is expanding because of desertification; the process of earth/land turning into desert due to the loss of moisture in the soil and loss of vegetation. Also it may be caused by human activity and an increase in the human population in one area.

Approximately 1 million kids are starving in Niger alone, 1 million people are also in need of food Mali, and most of the countries in the Sahara are in the top twenty most starving countries.

February 18, 1979. that the last time it snow.

A sand storm is also known as a dust storm. These storms can occur anywhere but mainly happen where there are large amounts of sand. The Sahara desert has hundreds of sand storms every year.

it is almost impossible to shelter as their are barely any trees. however if you do find a tree treasure it and use it for shelter from the sun!

The USA occupies approximately 9.5 million square kilometres and the Sahara Desrt approximately 8.5 million kilometres

It brought great hardship and death, because there was a lack of water for drinking and to grow crops and cause famine. In modern times for Egypt this has been elevated by the Aswan High dam, more recently, drought during the 1980s led to widespread starvation in Ethiopia and Sudan.

There are no factors affecting the climate of sahara Deseart🥰

The Atacama and Antarctic are the driest deserts, not he Sahara. The Atacama is so dry because the Andes mountains act as a block that prevents moisture from the Amazon and Atlantic from crossing into Chile and Peru, this forming a desert. The temperature in Antarctica is so very cold that the air can hold very little moisture that could form snow. It also does not have a source of warm oceanic water to act as a moisture supply for forming rain clouds.

Counting all the cacti in a desert is a virtual impossibility.

Saharan Africa and Africa in general is divided not by ethnicity, culture, or tribe but by random geographical boundaries arbitrarily selected by marauding colonials. Language groups are divided into Bantu, Swahili, Nilotic languages, with the common denominator of Arabic as a trade language for cultures located along the trade routes with hubs in Timbuktu, Egypt, Senegal, Mauritius, and terminating possibly in Morocco.

In every company there are probably a minimum of 5 major indigenous ethnic languages spoken, plus one or two colonial languages, with a religious language (generally Arabic), and various Pidgins or Creoles (Nigeria/Ghana). There is no way to unify Saharan Africa with one language, as the geography and related cultures are as varied as they are distinct.

Africa is a CONTINENT, not a country.

The Rubʿ al Khali "the empty quarter") or Empty Quarter is the largest sand desert in the world, encompassing most of the southern third of the Arabian Peninsula.

Yes, The Sahara Desert is located in Africa It is one of two deserts there.

Using 9,000,000 sq. km as the area of the Sahara (from Wikipedia), if the Sahara were a country, it would rank just between Brasil (8,514,877 sq. km) and China (9,598,094 sq. km). The United States is the next larger country at 9,629,091 sq. km. So no country is the "same" size as the Sahara based on these figures.

Baobab trees are one type of tree that can grow in the african desert. Due to it's enormous trunk, it can survive in harsh terrains that don't provide sufficient water. It's the tree that Rafiki from Lion King lives in. Bushwillow is the most common, Jackalberry trees, Marula trees, and Buffalothorns are a few to name too.

A common bird in the western Sahara desert is the Ostrich. Some others include ducks, geese, flamingos, boobies, and swans.

Dunes...?

But there isn't really any other name for a Desert Biome.

The Sahara is hot due to a combination of the near-total lack of water (Half of the Sahara receives less than 2 centimetres (0.79 in) of rain per year, and the rest receives up to 10 cm (3.9 in) per year.) and the fact that much of it lies between the Earth's equator and the Tropic of Cancer, so it receives more direct sunlight than other parts of the world.

The Sahara desert is in north Africa not in south America.

Through the process of desertification, the Sahara is growing rapidly each year.

The African continent south of the Sahara Desert is hot and dry. Many countries are in the middle of serious droughts and famine. Any rivers at all are very important for growing crops to feed the people there.
