Desert biomes are parts of nature that are dry, barren places that consist of rocks, sand and has little or no vegetation.

This Padlet is to enthuse you with more information regarding information about desert biomes.

Deserts are located in the Africa / Middle East / North and South America regions:
- Africa
- North America
- South America
- Australia
- Asia
- Middle East

This graph is here to show that in the Sahara Desert (biome example) doesn't receive that much precipitation year around. It usually exceeds a minimum of 133mm. There's less than 130mm of cumulative rain (every year).

When viewing this temperature graph for the Sahara Desert you can average highest and lowest temperatures. The gap between the two lines is very wide, but it's there to help emphasis how cold it can become during the morning and night. That also goes for when the temperatures rise during the afternoon.

Abiotic Factors in Desert Biomes:

1. Varying temperatures

2. Low rainfall

3. Precipitation (connected to Low Rainfall)

4. Water availability

The majority of deserts are characterized by the amounts of rainfall (precipitation) that they receive year-round.

What makes a desert unique apart from other biomes because of the lack of rain it receives compared to other biomes (Ex: rainforest). What also makes this biome unique is that the plants and animals that live on these types of biomes are able to adapt to their environments even though the temperature etc changes constantly.

Biotic Factors in Desert Biomes

1. Animal Adaptions

2. Drought-resistant plants

3. Plant Adaptions

These are just a few of the many biotic factors found/located within Desert biomes.
