Temperatures in the Namib Desert are generally lower than those in the Kgalagadi Desert due to its coastal location and the influence of the cold Benguela Current, which moderates temperatures. The Namib experiences more fog and moisture from the sea, while the Kgalagadi, being more inland and located in a semi-arid region, tends to have higher temperatures with less humidity. Additionally, the topography and vegetation differences contribute to the temperature variations between the two deserts.
