Transcript: Threat: Urbanization Threat: Tourism Animal: Addax Threat: Mining and overexploitation The addax is an endangered antelope species native to the Sahara Desert habitat of Africa. Desert regions are often targeted for urban expansion and infrastructure development due to their relatively low population density. Construction of cities, roads, and industrial facilities can disrupt and fragment natural habitats, leading to the threat of biodivesity and habitats damage. Desert areas often attract tourists and recreational activities such as off-road vehicle use, hiking, and camping. Unplanned tourism and irresponsible recreational practices can result in habitat destruction, disturbance to wildlife, and littering, leading to negative impacts on desert ecosystems. Deserts are rich in mineral resources, such as oil, gas, fossil fuel. However, too much mining operations can result in habitat destruction and water contamination. Additionally, the extraction of fossil fuels contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and exacerbates climate change. Adaptation: Addax has evolved efficient mechanisms for conserving water. They can obtain much of their water requirement from the vegetation they consume. Also, their kidneys are adapted to concentrate urine, minimizing water loss. Animal: Meerkat The meerkat is an organism which survived in the desert habitats of southern Africa. 2 Reason to visit the desert 1. Wildlife and Biodiversity: Deserts animals and plants have unique and specialized adaptations that have allowed them to thrive in harsh conditions. Visitors are often attracted to the opportunity to observe and learn about desert-adapted wildlife, such as camels, meerkat, Cacutus, Addax and various species. Adaptation: First, Meerkats have a thin coat of fur that helps prevent overheating during the day. Furthermore, the predation relationship between birds, snakes and meerkat is a significant threat to meerkats. To survive, Meerkats have evolved various anti-predator behaviors, such as sentinel behavior, which one or two meerkats keep watch for potential threats while others forage for food. Desert 2. Stargazing and Dark Skies: Deserts are often remote and sparsely populated which provides ideal conditions for observing the night sky. With minimal light pollution, deserts offer breathtaking views of the stars, constellations, and celestial events. Animal: Camel Lucas Wang Environmental Science Introduction of the Desert The camel is a mammal species known for its ability to survive in the desert habitats. Adaptation: First, Camel's hump can store a lot of water, which can ensure its long-term travel hydration supply. Furthermore, the parasitism relationship between Camel and bot fly may weaken Camel's immune system. Bot fly may lays eggs and develop larve inside its nose. The parasitic infestation can cause respiratory problems for the camel. Dessert is an arid ecosystem characterized by sparse vegetation, extreme temperatures, and limited precipitation. Dessert usually has extremely hot day and extremely cold night. Deserts cover about one-third of the Earth's land. Biotic factors: Camel, Cactus, Meerkat... Abiotic factors: Sand, extremely temperature and flat topography. Desert's characteristic Plant: Cactus Plant: Joshua tree Plant: Desert-willow Cacti is an organism which features that allow them to thrive in the scarce water desert habitats. The desert willow is a plant species has evolved a range of adaptations that allow it to thrive in the desert habitats. Joshua tree is a plant species found in the arid regions of the southwestern United States which has remarkable adaptations to its harsh desert habitats. 1. Climate Deserts are characterized by a dry climate with low humidity and limited rainfall. 2. Average temperature Deserts typically have high daytime temperatures and low night temperature and significant temperature fluctuations between day and night. 3. Average precipitation amounts Deserts receive minimal rainfall, with annual precipitation amounts ranging from less than 25 millimeters. 4. Seasons The desert season includes hot season and cold season. The hot season is characterized by scorching temperatures, while the cooler season experiences relatively milder temperatures. 5. Locations Africa, North America and Australia. Adaptation: The desert willow has flexible branches and a slender, open crown, which helps it withstand strong desert winds. This structural adaptation reduce the risk of branch damage. Adaptation: First, Cacti's stem are capable of absording and storing water during rainfall period. Furthermore, Cacti can developed mutualism relationship with other organisms. For example, they may build mutualism with insects or birds, which pollinate their flowers and get water in exchange for food or shelter. Adaptation: Joshua trees are adapted to extreme temperature fluctuations in the desert. Their light-colored leaves help reflect sunlight and reduce heat absorption.

Blue Desert

Transcript: Blue Desert By: Nora Titrud, Ivan Bjornlund Sahara Desert climate: subtropical in the northern areas, tropical in the south. The Sahara is located on the continent of Africa. It covers 11 countries. average temperatures between 76F and 111F camels can go more miles per gallon of water then most animals the sahara has reached temperatures of 136 degrees F and can drop to below zero throughout the nights. the Tibesti Mountains are a group of volcanoes forming a mountain range. Hight: 11,204 feet high. Half of the Sahara gets less then 2 cm. of rain a year. The other half gets about 10 cm. a year. Except near rivers and highlands, vegitation in much of the Sahara is very sparce. There are fifteen deserts throughout the world. The Sahara is the biggest desert out of the fifteen. If you make the camel sit down it can block you completely from the sand storm. area: 8.6 million km. Camels are about 50 million years old . camels are useful for sand storms! The Tibesti Mountains Grasses and shrubs have adapted to the harsh climate. camels store fat in their humps and water in their blood population: 4 million people

The Blue Desert.

Transcript: You should definitely consider going to the blue desert, because not that many people have time to go to them because they are interested in the pyramids and all the landmarks. The Blue Desert. what wildlife/landscapes will you see? Buried mosque Only the tip of this minaret peeks out of a huge sand dune on Egypt's northern Mediterranean coast. Archaelogists stumbled upon the ninth century site at Baltim, in 1998. They believe the entire mosque of Sidi El-Kheshoey is buried intact underneath the sand. Some believe the endlessly shifting dunes conceal the remains of a village too Your holiday. Conclusion About the desert. It is located in EgyptThe Blue Desert is an area of the Sinai Desert near the Red Sea resort of Dahab, where a number of rocks are painted blue. The climate max is 36*c This piece of art was created in 1980 when, following the 1979 Egyptian–Israeli Peace Treaty Belgian artist Jean Verame visited Sinai to paint a line of peace. Verame gained the permission of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and received a grant of ten tons of paint from the United Nations. Jean Verame later created a similar installation near the village of Tafraout in southern Morocco. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/shared/spl/hi/picture_gallery/08/middle_east_egypt0s_hidden_treasures/html/9.stm Al-Khalawati Mosque, Cairo Hanging on by a thread to the side of a hill overlooking Cairo, is the ruined mosque and tomb of Shahin al-Khalawati. Shahin was a pious man. He built the mosque in 1538 and stayed there until his death thirty years later, never descending to the hubbub of Cairo below.

Desert Presentation

Transcript: The Desert By Noah C. and Will P. What is a Desert? What is it? The Desert is a large open wasteland full of sand that has a surprising amount of specialized animals and wildlife that can live in it. The desert has four different ecosystems, which include hot and dry deserts, semi arid deserts, coastal deserts and cold deserts. All of these deserts receive very little rainfall per year. This is what a Desert looks like. Desert Locations All the major deserts are around the equator. The Australian Outback (Southern hemisphere), the Sahara Desert (On the equator), and Southwestern USA. (Northern hemisphere) Locations The Outback Outback Australia Sahara Sahara Africa American Southwest Southwest USA Climate Daytime temperature can range from 50°C (120°F) all the way up to 90°C (195°F), averaging at while nighttime temperature can go as low as -3.9°C (25°F). Rainfall averages at 1-8 inches per year. Climate Rain Rainfall Temperature Temperature Plants in the Desert Cactus: a type of desert plant that has thick, leafless stems covered in prickly spines or sharp spikes. Cornflowers: Blue flowers that rarely bloom during desert rains Yucca Flower: A succulent plant with clusters of waxy white flowers Plants Cactus Cactus Cornflower Cornflower Yucca Flower Yucca Flower Animals Animals Horned Toad Lizard Scorpions Spiders Centipedes Beetles Wood Lice Grasshopper Mouse Pygmy Mouse Elephant Shrews Golden Moles Gerbils Jerboas kangaroo Rats African Sand Vipers Sidewinders Rattlesnakes Gila Monsters Horned Toad Lizard Horned Toad Lizard Pygmy Mouse Pygmy Mouse African Sand Vipers African Sand Vipers Vocabulary Desertification Vocabulary Desertification The making of new deserts through a change in climate or destructive land use. Desertification 3 Facts Fact 1: Deserts at most get about 25cm (10 inches) of rainfall per year Fact 2: Each year, 15 million acres of deserts are formed through destructive land use and climate change Fact 3: The Sahara desert is the world's largest desert, it stretches from the Atlantic coast in Africa to the Arabian Peninsula 3 Facts Desert Rain Rain Desertification Desertification The Sahara The Sahara Questions Questions Question 1: What Causes Desertification?

Transcript: DRagonFly Scorpions BEETLE The adaptions my critter has came from a Blister Beetle and a DragonFly. The Blister Beetle/DragonFly gets around from it's from it's legs, but most importantly it's long wide wings. With it's black and tan stripped body and clear colored wings its able to blend in with it's surroundings. It's antenna's are longer than usual to help it on land and in air. Also the Blister Beetle now has a tail that carries poison in it. When a predator trys to attack, it uses it's tail as protection. It is important for organisms to maintain homeostasis because it helps stablize their internal conditions, but in order for it to maintain homeostasis the cells must work together as one. - Extreme heat - Sandstorms - Low rain fall (harder for them to maintain water in their body) Millipede & centipede i would describe homeostasis as environment and which tends to maintain a stable temperature in either in door or outdoor , so that that comfortable where their at. its important for them to maintain homeostasis because if they don't there going to be switched around to different environments that there not used to and it wouldn't be good for them. Some species of Millipede do not need to mate, as they are parthenogenetic. This means that they are able to produce offspring without mating. There can be two different ways the female will become fertilised. The first way, is by the male simply leaving a spermatophore on the ground of the enclosure. The female will then find it, and she will place it in her spermacthecae, and store it. The second way, is by the Millipedes actually mating. The male will coil around the female, and manually place the spermatophore in her spermathecae. Adaptations Reproductive my adaptations my critter has , have came from a regular millipede and centipede. it has different parts to make it different from each other. my critter has a hard black shell with holes to help it to breath and extra long legs to help it move faster then normal. it lives in the desert with quick sand and the legs help it move through it smooth so that it can get from location to location. my critter came about from a worm it reproduce. when predators try to attack they shoot a noxious compound several feet at their attackers eyes.
