A desert is a landscape or region that receives an extremely low amount of precipitation, less than enough to support growth of most plants. Areas which receive as low as 250 millimeters of rainfall annually are attributed as deserts. Deserts are classified into various types, based on their geographical location.
The types of deserts include trade wind deserts, mid-latitude deserts, rain shadow deserts, coastal deserts, monsoon deserts, polar deserts, paleodeserts and extraterrestrial deserts. Currently, it is accepted that one-fifth of the earth's surface is covered by these sandy barren lands.
