	The Desert Biome
		Deserts cover about one fifth of the Earth’s surface and occur where rainfall is less than 50 cm/year.
		Although most deserts, such as the Sahara of North Africa and the deserts of the southwestern U.S., Mexico, and Australia, occur at low latitudes, another kind of desert, cold deserts, occur in the basin and range area of Utah and Nevada and in parts of western Asia.
		Desert surfaces receive a little more than twice the solar radiation received by humid regions and lose almost twice as much heat at night.

	World Biomes - Desert
		Most of the flora in the coastal desert features thick foliage, with good water retention, and their roots are close to the surface of the ground in order to get enough water before it drains into the soil.
		Animals of the coastal desert include rough skinned amphibians, birds of prey, scavenger mammals reptiles and insects; most have adapted quite well to the climate, and again, they are largely nocturnal during the warmer months.
		Most of the animals in the cold desert are burrowers, even the carnivores and reptiles which even though cold-blooded, have made their homes in the cold desert.

		This paper describes the tropospheric circulation over the lower deserts of Arizona, California, and northwestern Mexico using observations from a special rawinsonde network operated during July and August as part of the 1993 Southwest Area Monsoon Project.
		The observations show that the flow over the low desert is diffluent, divergent, and upslope during the afternoon and confluent, weakly convergent, and downslope or slope parallel in the early morning hours.
		A heat budget indicates that radiative heating in the lower troposphere over the desert is approximately balanced by the influx of cooler air from over the Gulf of California but uncertainties in the estimates of vertical motion and horizontal temperature advection make the budget uncertain in the middle troposphere.
