There are different kinds of deserts. Both hot and cold deserts. A lot of the hot deserts are near the equator. this means that it is very hot. If it is too hot, the water that evaporates can't condense into precitipation to fall onto the earth. For the cold deserts, they are near the poles. This way, it precipitates a little, but the water freezes, and it doesn't evaporate into the atmosphere. When you see movies about Antarctica, all of the snow that is blowing around is just fallen snow that doesn't evaportate, but is blown around by the strong winds.
Would you rather live in a hot or cold desert, and why?
I think that it would be difficult to say...
ReplyDeleteThere are plenty of reasons to live and not live in both of them.
If I absolutely haaaaad to choose however, i would pick hot desert. I chose this because i think it would be easier to aquire the water from other places while as in a cold desert where you can freeze, it would be slightly more difficult...
