The Sonoran Desert is a big desert in southwestern part of North America. The Sonoran Desert location is at latitude 25° to 33° North and longitude 105° to 118° West. The Sonoran Desert is a hot place to be. It is sandy with a lot of cactuses. ]]> 2021-09-10 18:57:48 UTC https://padlet.com/germainedavis/pbjz8jjxx0snvwfm/wish/1731702237 germainedavis https://padlet.com/germainedavis/pbjz8jjxx0snvwfm/wish/1731717790 The Sonoran Desert Seasonal Temperature range form an average of 52º F in the winter, to 86º F in the summer. Average annual temperature over 65° F. A average of 3 to 16 inches of rain a year. As moisture on the soil surface and near-surface air evaporate following a storm, temperatures may drop 10°C (50°F) or more, often within a matter of minutes. ]]> 2021-09-10 19:07:31 UTC https://padlet.com/germainedavis/pbjz8jjxx0snvwfm/wish/1731717790 germainedavis https://padlet.com/germainedavis/pbjz8jjxx0snvwfm/wish/1735919945 The Sonoran is a hot desert. Summer air temperatures routinely exceed 40°C (104°F), and often reach 48°C (118°F). As temperature increase during the summer. Participation increases . These high near-surface temperature interacts with cool, moist air in the atmosphere to produce the violent thunderstorms of the summer monsoon. The most rain usually is between the Month of September and July]]> 2021-09-13 12:50:22 UTC https://padlet.com/germainedavis/pbjz8jjxx0snvwfm/wish/1735919945 germainedavis https://padlet.com/germainedavis/pbjz8jjxx0snvwfm/wish/1737086456 The Sonoran Desert have a latitude 25° to 33° with a altitude of 4,000 ft. The temperature becomes warmer at lower latitude at the same elevation. The Sonoran Desert have a wide ranges of geographical features which includes Mountains, Canyons, Hills, Flat Surface and High valleys. The Sunlight of the Sonoran desert changes during the day and it gets hotter. Seasonal temperatures ranges from an average of 52º F in the winter, to 86º F in the summer. The cause of this is because the Sonoran desert is closer to the equator.]]> 2021-09-13 18:37:35 UTC https://padlet.com/germainedavis/pbjz8jjxx0snvwfm/wish/1737086456 germainedavis https://padlet.com/germainedavis/pbjz8jjxx0snvwfm/wish/1737133529 The Sonoran Desert is home to a wide variety Fauna and Flora. Which includes Barrel Cactus, Brittle Bush, Chain Fruit Cholla etc. And, Fauna Bobcat, Cactus Wren, Coyote, Desert Bighorn Sheep, Javelina, etc. Barrel Cactus adaptation is they are covered with large and small spines. The larger spines keep away thirsty desert creatures, and the smaller spines help prevent water loss and scorching by reflecting away some of the intense desert sunlight. Specialized stems allow Cactus to store water for a long time, since rainfall is often sporadic in the deserts that Cactus call home. Bobcat They have adaptations that let them survive in these habitats including fur that changes color and helps camouflage them. They also have ears designed to pick up little sounds, retractable claws that help them climb and catch food, and sharp teeth that help them kill and eat a meal. These areas provide protection from competing species such as mountain lions, coyotes, and birds of prey.]]> 2021-09-13 18:56:39 UTC https://padlet.com/germainedavis/pbjz8jjxx0snvwfm/wish/1737133529 germainedavis https://padlet.com/germainedavis/pbjz8jjxx0snvwfm/wish/1737313915 - Tertiary

These are covered with a dense layer of sharp spines. These spines have a straw-colored sheath when young which turns a dark gray as they mature. The sheath acts to reflect sunlight and prevent over heating. As the cholla gets older the spines fall off and leave a rough and scaly bark on the trunk and old branches. Physical adaptation The thick covering of spines shades the plant from the desert heat. They also prevent animals from eating them.]]> 2021-09-14 18:48:48 UTC https://padlet.com/germainedavis/pbjz8jjxx0snvwfm/wish/1740455038 germainedavis https://padlet.com/germainedavis/pbjz8jjxx0snvwfm/wish/1740469627  Bobcats are expert predators which have several adaptations that help them to catch their prey.

They have a terrific sense of smell which they use to locate prey. Their hearing is very sharp too. They use their ears to tell other coyotes how they feel and what rank they are in the pack. The Coyote has a tan coat mixed with hairs of rusty brown and gray, and the ends of the hair may be black. The different colors help to hide the coyote in the underbrush, rocks, and grasses.

Higher temperatures may produce an increasing number of wildfires that alter desert landscapes by eliminating slow-growing trees and shrubs and replacing them with fast-growing grasses.
