A desert is a barren landscape characterized by its extremely low precipitation, making it one of the driest ecosystems on Earth. These regions often feature stark landscapes, including vast sandy dunes, rocky plateaus, and sparse vegetation, which have adapted to the harsh climate. Deserts can vary in temperature, from scorching hot days to frigid nights, and may host unique wildlife that has evolved to survive in such extreme conditions.
