Yes, the Atacama Desert is one of the driest, if not the driest area on earth. Some say that the honor of driest desert should go to Antarctica.
There is no 'Atlantic Desert.' Do you mean the Atacama Desert? The Atacama receives virtually no rainfall on average per year.
Rainfall is least likely to occur in desert regions such as the Sahara Desert, Atacama Desert, or Antarctica due to the arid conditions in these areas. These regions receive minimal precipitation throughout the year, leading to a scarcity of rainfall.
The Atacama Desert in Chile is considered the driest place on Earth, receiving very little rainfall each year.
Both the Antarctic Desert and the Atacama Desert receive virtually no precipitation each year
Atacama desert Is the driest place in the world so I believe that gets the least rainfall.Added:::The Atacama Desert of Chile is the driest desert on earth... Thereare sections of the desert with an annual average rainfall of 0.6 mm....However that was not the question,the question is "which place on earth has the least rainfall" which according to NASA,National Geographic and several other institutes of science is in Antarctica in an area called the Dry Valleys, which have seen no rainfall for nearly 2 million years.There is absolutely no precipitation in this region and it makes up a 4800 square kilometer region..
There are many different deserts in the world, e.g. The Sahara, Atacama etc, and each has different yearly rainfall. The Atacama desert in Latin America is the driest desert in the world. Atacama the driest desert some places in Atacama desert had not had rainfall for over 400 years .
It usually rains somewhere in the Atacama every year. The amount is little more than a sprinkle and some areas of the desert have not experienced any rainfall in historic times.
Average rainfall in the Atacama desert is only a few millimeters per year. However, there are parts of the desert that have measured no rainfall in over 400 years. The desert is a huge place and each area reports differing amounts.
The Atacama Desert of South America on the Pacific coast receives virtually no rainfall on average each year.
The Atacama is the driest desert on earth and receives little rainfall each year. Some areas have not received any measurable rain since measurements began over 400 years ago.
Antarctica and the Atacama Desert receive virtually no precipitation each year and are the two driest regions on earth.
Some scientists say that Antarctica is the driest, others say the Atacama Desert is the driest.
