Arid seasons refer to periods characterized by low precipitation and high evaporation rates, typically resulting in dry conditions. These seasons are most common in desert and semi-arid regions, where the climate is influenced by factors such as geographic location, topography, and atmospheric circulation patterns. During arid seasons, vegetation may become dormant, and water sources can diminish, leading to challenges for agriculture and ecosystems. The intensity and duration of arid seasons can vary significantly depending on the specific climatic conditions of an area.

it is separated into two. the northern part mostly experiences tropical seasons while the southern parts experiences 4 seasons.
A periodic river is a type of river that only flows during specific seasons or periods, typically in response to seasonal rainfall or melting snow. During dry seasons, these rivers may dry up completely or reduce to a trickle, while in wet seasons, they can swell significantly. This phenomenon is common in arid or semi-arid regions, where water availability fluctuates dramatically. Examples of periodic rivers include those found in desert areas or regions with distinct wet and dry seasons.
Rocky and arid land did encourage them. Natural harbors, plentiful resources, and long growing seasons did not.
Great plains
A riverbed that remains dry except during the rainy seasons is called an ephemeral river or intermittent river. These rivers are typically found in arid or semi-arid regions where water flow is sporadic and dependent on precipitation.
