Meanwhile, the human exploitation of desert regions - resulting in the drainage of underground aquifers and soil poisoning through salinisation - is accelerating the rate at which deserts are drying out to the point of being killed off.

The desert biome is an ecosystem that forms due to the low level of rainfall it receives each year. Deserts cover about 20% of the Earth. There are four major types of desert in this biome - hot and dry, semiarid, coastal, and cold. They are all able to inhabit plant and animal life that are able to survive there.
