Detailed explanation-1: -The American Southwest might evoke images of a hot, dry landscape-a land of rock, canyons, and deserts baked by the sun. Indeed, much of this region has low annual rainfall and seasonally high temperatures that contribute to its characteristic desert climate.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Sonoran Desert occurs in southern Arizona and extends into California, and well into Mexico. It is a subtropical desert considered by some to be the biologically richest desert in the world. The Chihuahuan Desert occurs mainly in Mexico but extends north into Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas.
Detailed explanation-3: -In hot and dry deserts, also known as arid deserts, the temperatures are warm and dry year-round. Some famous arid deserts include the Sahara Desert that covers much of the African continent and the Mojave Desert located in the southwest of the United States. Semi-arid deserts are a bit cooler than hot and dry deserts.
Detailed explanation-4: -Much of the Southwest is desert, so it has a hot, dry climate with very little rain. Many places in the Southwest have 300 days of sunshine a year! The climate of the Southwest region is mild.
