The Kalahari Desert is dry primarily due to its location in the subtropical high-pressure belt, which leads to descending air that inhibits cloud formation and precipitation. Additionally, the region is situated far from moist oceanic sources, limiting rainfall. The surrounding topography, including the presence of the Drakensberg Mountains to the south, also contributes to the rain shadow effect, further reducing moisture in the area. These factors combine to create the arid conditions characteristic of the Kalahari.
