Desert Characteristics There are hot deserts and cold deserts characterized by dry soil. Dry with little rainfall (less than 25 cm a year). Evaporation rates are faster than rainfall rates. Driest Biome

Desert Characteristics In hot deserts, there are high temperatures during the day and cold temperatures during the night Most deserts are located near middle latitudes

Desert Plant Life Plants usually have few leaves and thick roots to help them keep moisture in the dry soil
