Deserts Explained

Deserts may seem lifeless, but in fact many species have evolved special ways to survive in the harsh environments.

Desert plants have adapted to go without fresh water for long stretches of time. The bodies of cacti, like this saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea) in the Sonoran Desert, are formed to store and conserve water.

Far from being barren wastelands, deserts are biologically rich habitats with a vast array of animals and plants that have adapted to the harsh conditions there. Some deserts are among the planet's last remaining areas of total wilderness. Yet more than one billion people, one-sixth of Earth's population, actually live in desert regions. What Is a Desert? Deserts cover more than one-fifth of Earth's land area, and they are found on every continent. A place that receives less than 25 centimeters (10 inches) of rain per year is considered a desert . Deserts are part of a wider class of regions called drylands. These areas exist under a “moisture deficit,” which means they can frequently lose more moisture through evaporation than they receive from annual precipitation . Despite the common conceptions of deserts as hot, there are cold deserts as well. The largest hot desert in the world, northern Africa's Sahara, reaches temperatures of up to 50 degrees Celsius (122 degrees Farenheit) during the day. But some deserts are always cold, like the Gobi desert in Asia and the polar deserts of the Antarctic and Arctic, which are the world's largest. Others are mountainous. Only about 20 percent of deserts are covered by sand. The driest deserts , such as Chile's Atacama Desert , have parts that receive less than two milimeters (0.08 inches) of precipitation a year. Such environments are so harsh and otherworldly that scientists have even studied them for clues about life on Mars. On the other hand, every few years, an unusually rainy period can produce "super blooms," where even the Atacama becomes blanketed with wildflowers. Desert Animals and Plants Desert animals have evolved ways to help them keep cool and use less water. Camels can go for weeks without water, and their nostrils and eyelashes can form a barrier against sand. Many desert animals, such as the fennec fox ( Vulpes zerda ), are nocturnal, coming out to hunt only when the brutal sun has descended. Some animals, like the desert tortoise ( Gopherus agassizzi ) in the southwestern United States, spend much of their time underground. Most desert birds are nomadic, crisscrossing the skies in search of food. And among insects, the Namib desert beetle ( Stenocara gracilipes ) can harvest fog from the air for water. Because of their very special adaptations, desert animals are extremely vulnerable to changes in their habitat. Desert plants may have to go without fresh water for years at a time. Some plants have adapted to the arid climate by growing long roots that tap water from deep underground. Other plants, such as cacti, have special means of storing and conserving water. Deserts , Land Use, and Climate Change Some of the world's semiarid regions are turning into desert at an alarming rate. This process, known as desertification , is not caused by drought, but usually arises from deforestation and the demands of human populations that settle in semiarid lands. The pounding of the soil by the hooves of livestock in ranching, for example, may degrade the soil and augment erosion by wind and water. In northern China, growing urbanization, which left much of the land unprotected against wind erosion and the buildup of sediment from the surrounding desert , created a desertification problem, prompting the government to build a "great green wall" as a hedge against encroaching desert . In existing deserts , some species are in peril because of climate change . Global warming threatens to change the ecology of deserts : Higher temperatures may produce more wildfires that alter desert landscapes by eliminating slow-growing trees and shrubs and replacing them with fast-growing grasses. Many desert plants can live for hundreds of years. But in California, the iconic Joshua tree ( Yucca brevifolia )—the oldest found was 1,000 years old—may not survive a hotter climate, scientists warn. If they don't survive, that could affect species such as the yucca moth ( Tegeticula synthetica ), which lays its eggs inside the Joshua tree flower. Desert bird species could also be in danger from climate change, as heat waves lead to lethal dehydration. Paradoxically, the effort to reduce planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions by expanding solar energy has also created some tensions for desert habitats. In the Mojave, the 2013 arrival of the Ivanpah solar thermal plant created concerns about how the facility would affect threatened desert tortoises, and conservationists are working to ensure solar energy projects like these can coexist with wildlife. Other land use changes also threaten to degrade desert habitats. The downsizing of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument poses a threat to some of the 660 bee species that live in the area, while the prospect of a border wall between the United States and Mexico could disconnect a third of 346 native wildlife species from 50 percent or more of their range that lies south of the border, including the desert bighorn sheep ( Ovis canadensis nelsoni ).

Presentation Transcript

Types of deserts • Tropical deserts – southern Sahara in Africa • Temperate deserts – Mojave in Southern California • Cold deserts – Gobi in China

Deserts cover about one-fifth of the Earth’s land surface. • Most deserts are near the Tropic of Capricorn or the Tropic of Cancer. • Deserts can be found all around the world, particularly in southwest United States, south America, northern Africa, central Australia, the middle east, and China.

Deserts: where & why Deserts & winds

Desert – an ecosystem found where there is very little rainfall. • Deserts are dry and hot. There are very few clouds. • Two kinds of deserts: • Hot deserts • Cold deserts • Hot deserts • Temperatures are very warm all year round • The summers are very hot • Cold deserts • Short, warm summers • Long, cold winters • Found in places near the north and south poles

Location • The Sahara desert covers the northern section of Africa, and spreads over almost all the “top of the continent, it is the largest hot desert in the world, as well as the second largest desert on earth after Antarctica.

Climate • Deserts are areas of land that usually receive less than thirty centimeters of rain each year. • Deserts have cold nights, and extremely hot days. • Most deserts usually receive about fifteen centimeters of rain each year.

Climate (Atmosphere and Hydrosphere) • The desert temperature is not always hot. During the night, desert temperatures are quite cold, even below freezing point. The daytime temperatures are hot because there is very little cloud cover. This means that maximum radiation from the sun reaches the surface of the earth. In summer the temperature can reach as high as 40°C, while in winter, the temperature can reach 24°C.

Large diurnal range • At night time, the lack of cloud cover allows the heat of the day to escape quickly, resulting in cold, even freezing, temperatures. The difference between the daily minimum and maximum temperatures is known as the diurnal range.

Extremely hot days and very cold nights: • Cloudless skiesallow the sun to heat the atmosphere very quickly to very high temperatures. At night this same lack of cloud cover means that there is no insulation to hold the heat in and it escapes very quickly to the clear night sky.

So night temperatures are very cold and can even drop below freezing. • Deserts have a very high DIURNAL (daily) range of temperatures, usually more than 20C. • The annual temperature ranges are also (difference between summer and winter) are also relatively high in deserts.

Task: Construct a climate graph for Wadi Halfa

Sahara desert • Rainfall less then 50 cm a year • Temperatures range from 20-25 degrees extreme maximum ranges from 43.5-49 degrees • participation is less then ten inches a year.

why very few clouds form in tropical deserts ? • Distance from oceans • Winds blow over large areas of land • Winds blow offshore/do not blow from sea hence no source of moisture/water sources • Low humidity • Lack of evaporation • Sparse vegetation • Lack of transpiration • High air pressure • Descending air • Cold offshore currents

Plants • Deserts have very little foliage, and cacti are usually scattered across the dry, barren land. • Plants that grow in the desert are just shrubs and woody trees. • Cacti store water in there bodies when it rains so they can retrieve it for later use. • Desert vegetation is scattered and spread out and almost all of the plants have spiny leaves.

Some Plants Include: • Barrel Cactus • Brittle Bush • ChainfruitCholla • Creosote Bush • Crimson Hedgehog Cactus • Desert Ironwood • Joshua Tree • Jumping Cholla • Mojave Aster • Ocotillo • Palo Verde • Pancake Prickly Pear Cactus • Saguaro Cactus • Soaptree Yucca • Triangle-leaf Bursage

Relationshipbetween the climate and the natural vegetation • Low precipitation (aridity) results in scattered (sparse) vegetation • Seeds (plants) remain dormant during long dry spells • Narrow (spiky) leaves reduce rates of evapotranspiration/because of high temperatures • Long roots (wide spreading roots) search for water • Some plants (cacti) store water in order to survive long periods of drought

Animals • Most of the animals that live in the desert have adapted to be able to live in the hot weather by burrowing underground during the day and only coming out at night. • Animals in the desert have also developed a unique ability to store water, which could come from the seeds they eat, or the animals they eat. • Animals are usually small nocturnal carnivores.

Some Animals Include: • Armadillo Lizard • Banded Gila Monster • Bobcat • Cactus Wren • Coyote • Desert Bighorn Sheep • Desert Kangaroo Rat • Desert Tortoise • Javelina • Cactus Ferruginous Pygmy Owl • Sonoran Desert Toad • Sonoran Pronghorn Antelope • Thorny Devil

Anteater Camel Roadrunner Gila monster (lizard) Scorpion

Natural environment is threatened by human activities • The area is used for farming • Animals are killed • Tourists destroy dunes • large herds of animals are grazed in the area which destroys pastures • Resources/oil is mined/drilled in the area and wildlife is killed as habitat is destroyed • The use of quad bikes/trampling on the dunes wears them away

South America and Africa, experience a tropical rainforest climate whilst other parts experience a tropical desert climate. • factors such as: • Latitude • Influence of overhead sun • Distance from oceans • Presence/absence of moderating influence of water body • Wind direction/trade winds/doldrums • Lack of/presence of evaporation • Presence/absence of cloud cover • Air pressure
