Desert Explorers

Earth's Dry Landscapes

Explore deserts as varied ecosystems shaped by low rainfall, temperature extremes, soils, topography and seasonal water. Reptiles use behavioural and physiological strategies to manage heat, cold and dehydration, but those adaptations differ among species and desert regions. Articles connect desert habitats with reptile distribution, ecology and conservation.
