On "most" military maps (from the 20th century), deserts were depicted as FLAT areas with NO LINES on them, and/or with some shallow "S" shaped lines with wide spaces in between. The closer the lines to each other indicated steeper terrain. If the lines (on the map) were very close to each other, almost touching one another, then that indicated a very steep terrain feature...such as a cliff. Keep in mind, that (20th century military maps) were AERIAL views.

Why do deserts exist in the southwest US?
The coastal mountain ranges and Sierra Nevada act as barriers that keep Pacific moisture from moving inland, forming rain shadow deserts.
How do mountains play part in forming deserts?
Mountains can create deserts through a process called the rain shadow effect. When moist air from the ocean rises and cools as it reaches a mountain range, it releases precipitation on the windward side. By the time the air descends on the leeward side, it is dry and has lost much of its moisture, creating arid conditions and leading to desert formation.
Why are deserts found in Africa?
On the boundary of the tropics, air is sinking so carries little moisture, forming deserts. In the actual tropics, air rises and carries a great deal of humidity into the atmosphere that falls back to earth as rain.
Why do the major deserts of the world occur around 25 degrees north or south of the equator?
Air in the tropics along the equator rises, carrying with it moisture that then falls in the tropics. The dry air then sinks at about 25 degrees north and south forming deserts.
How do you draw a guadrangle that is not a parallelogram?

What is the problems in sheet metal forming or draw operation?
Common problems in sheet metal forming or draw operations include wrinkling, tearing, springback, dimensional accuracy issues, and surface quality defects. These issues can arise due to factors such as material properties, lubrication, tool design, and process parameters. Proper control and adjustment of these factors are essential to achieve successful forming operations.
Which side of mountains do deserts form?
Mountains force the humid air from the sea to rise where the moisture condenses and falls as rain on the windward side of the mountains. The air passes to the leeward side but now lacks moisture forming a rain shadow desert. See the diagram above.
Why are deserts commonly located on either side of a tropical area?
Air in the tropics along the equator contains much moisture and are therefore lighter. They rise and the moisture condenses and falls as rain. The dry air is heavier and then sinks about 30 degrees north and south of the equator forming deserts.
Why are there not many clouds in the desert?
clouds form when bodies of water evaporate during a period of time. Deserts not having bodies of water for many miles does not provide for cloud forming.
