Despite desert landscapes across the world reflect many similarities, the process of desertification is influenced by local factors. Elaborate with suitable examples.

Deserts are a biome characterized by low precipitation and biodiversity.

Desertification is a climatic phenomenon (but influenced by anthropogenic factors) that involves the spread of desert-like features in a region.

[Diagram showing desert types]: Subtropical desert, Desert, Semi-arid, Arid, Hot desert, Himalayas, Savanna desert, Antharctics cold desert.

(B) All deserts show low precipitation year-round.

(D) How vegetation due to inadequate water/moisture.

(E) Low quality soil with high weathering/erosion acid soil eg: mushroom trees.

(F) Very few animals ie: cold blooded insects in warm deserts, and some blooded in cold deserts.

Modifying animals that hibernate to escape harsh condition.

Descriptification is influenced by local factors:

him - STB and inadequate replenishment of local water sources.

As a result, desert-like condition start to spread. This is being seen in rain off-can motions to Sahara is spreading to cover most of Africa and moving southwards. Similarly, it is drying region of N.India (eg Rajasthan, Gujarat) and inland countries of Africa, inland countries of Africa, local factors influence desertification.

A only local change can contract it. UN Convention Combat Desertification Aim to bring together nations to reduce the threat of expanding desert landscapes due to human folly.
