Desert

=Definition for eco zone or biome=

A biogeographic realm or **ecozone ** is the broadest biogeographic division of the Earth's land surface, based on distributional patterns of terrestrial organisms. They are subdivided in ecoregions, which are classified in biomes or habitat types.

=Discuss Water= there is NO WATER in the desert.

=Discuss Climate= Hot desert climates usually feature hot, sometimes exceptionally hot, periods of the year. In many locations featuring a hot desert climate, maximum temperatures of over **40 °C ** ( **104 °F **) are not uncommon in summer and can soar to over **45 °C **( **113 °F **) in the hottest regions.

During the day the temperature may reach 50°C, when at night it may fall to below 0°C. Deserts have less than 250 mm of rainfall per year. The rain can be unreliable. P recipitation is too low to sustain any vegetation at all, or at most a very scanty shrub.

=Some animals that live there<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Futura,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> Deserts are a very important biome. No, not because of all the sand! Mostly because of all the plants and animals that call the desert "home". Some animals that live in the hot desert are cold-blooded, like snakes, insects, and lizards. Mammals that live in the desert are usually small, such as the kangaroo rat and kit fox. Sometimes it's hard to survive in the desert. Some mice build their home out of fallen cactus spines to protect themselves from predators like coyotes and hawks. In the Eritrean coastal desert in Djibouti, Africa, animals like gazelles, skinks, geckos and roam the desert. Fewer animals live in the cold desert. In Antarctica, most of the animals live near the ocean shore. Because of their ice home, seals, penguins, and other birds rely on fish, squid and other sea creatures for their food. =
