Cordoba in Spain is the only place you would technically be able to classify as a desert in Europe if you go off of the 10 inch's of rain or less rule, but it is not a True dessert due to the lack of indigenous arad like vegetation which the Americas, Africa and parts of Asia have in their desserts. It is more of a hybrid between Mediterranean and cold arid climate.
thanks this was great and i like watching ur vids
“The wilderness and the parched land will exult, And the desert plain will be joyful and blossom as the saffron”
Again, desertification doesn't mean desert formation. Deserts are functional ecosystems adapted to low water availability. Desertified areas refers to those ecosystems deeply damaged that has lost soil fertility and biodiversity. Many ecosystems are vulnerable and can become desertified areas, no deserts.
I have noticed that desertification shouldn't be confused with a "desert ecosystem formation". Desertification is a lost of resources within an ecosystem which implies soil and flora lost. The result becomes a very vulnerable and poor biogeochemical interactions. A desert ecosystem is the resulting system of evolution which implies hundreds or thousands of years of interactions. The soul structure is stable and functional, the flora and fauna are particularly functional and plenty adapted.
Great!
I miss the desert one day I'll return to see the cacti and geckos.
Paldies - thanks from Riga, Latvia!
