    Most arid climates are found along latitudes 30 degrees north and south of the equator, as well as in the centers of large continents. Arid climates experience two seasons that are both dry, hot, and sunny, with hot days and cold nights. Due to low rainfall, arid climates have minimum vegetation that requires little water, such as cacti, succulents, and bushes with long roots or thorns to store water.

    Arid

    Most arid (dry) climates, such


    as large deserts, lay on either
    side of the equator, along the
    30 degree latitude. Some arid
    CLIMATES (dry) climates can also be
    found in the centre of large
    continents.
    Arid (dry) climates experience
    two seasons, summer and
    winter. Although arid (dry)
    climates experience two
    seasons, the climate is dry, hot
    and sunny all year round. It
    can be extremely hot during
    the day, but at night it can get
    very cold.
    Due to a lack of water and low
    annual rainfall, there is
    minimum vegetation in an arid
    (dry) climate. Plants that
    survive in this climate require
    very little water, or can store
    water for long periods of time.
    The vegetation often has long
    roots and thorns. Cactus,
    succulents, bush and cholla
    (spiny treelike cacti) are
    common.
    An example of an arid
    (dry) climate is the Sahara
    Desert in North Africa.
