Deserts in China
Deserts in China, Virtual Field Trip
A. Wright, Teacher
The Taklamakan desert is located in West China. Like most deserts, the Taklamakan is extremely hot and dry during the day, and very cold at night. Also like most deserts there is very little rainfall. This makes vegetation hard to come by in the Taklamakan Desert. Here and there, deserts have small areas with lush vegetation, most likely caused by an underground waterway. What is the geographic term for these areas? (hint: it starts with the letter "O.")
