"A desert is an area that receives less than 10 inches of precipitation annually and experiences high temperatures, with conditions ranging from extremely arid to semi-arid. Deserts cover approximately 30% of the Earth’s surface. The deserts are extremely diverse and come in different shapes, sizes, and climates. Given their diversity, deserts are divided into several groups including sub-tropical deserts, cold winter deserts, polar deserts, and cool coastal deserts. The Arctic and Antarctic deserts are the largest in the world. Here are some of the countries that are covered by deserts."
The 10 Largest Deserts In The World Are : In Excess Of 6 Million Square Miles Are Dry-Hot Deserts : 3.84 Billion Acres
- Antarctic - 5.5 million square miles
- Arctic - 5.4 million square miles
- Sahara - 3.5 million square miles
- Arabian - 1.0 million square miles
- Gobi - 0.5 million square miles
- Patagonian - 0.26 million square miles
- Great Victoria - 0.25 million square miles
- Kalahari - 0.22 million square miles
- Great Basin - 0.19 million square miles
- Syrian - 0.19 million square miles
Seen from space, the majority of the Earth’s surface is covered by oceans – that makes up 71% of the surface of the Earth, with the remaining 29% for land. But what percentage of the Earth’s land surface is desert? Deserts actually make up 33%, or 1/3rd of the land’s surface area.
That might sound like a surprisingly large amount, but that’s based on the official definition of a desert. Desert are any region on Earth that can have a moisture deficit over the course of a year. In other words, they can have less rainfall in a year than they give up through evaporation.
You would think that deserts are hot, but there are cold deserts too. In fact, the largest cold desert in the world is the continent of Antarctica. There are barren rock fields in Antarctica that never receive snow, even though they’re incredibly cold. The largest hot desert is the Sahara desert, in northern Africa, covering 9 million square kilometers.
