Bascilly I am doing a project on desert biomes, I have been looking on the internet for litterly hours for werid facts to put on my poster for my highschool biology class. I can't find much. I already have tempertaures and climate and the rainfall stuff. I need random and unique facts on hot and cold deserts. Examples of unqiue facts are The Gobi desert is cold almost all year Deserts have almost as many varieties of plants and animals as the rainforest. That sort of stuff. Anything helps.

What sort of environment wouldyou have between a desert anda typical forest of the north?
What sort of environment would you have bewteen a desert and a typical forest of the north? I'm currently writing a book and the characters are first in a forest in the northern hemisphere, and I want them to get into a desert. What do I make them cross to get to the desert? What sort of environment, or geological feature would there be that could be a transition environment bewteen the forest and the desert?
At least in north America, the transition usually goes from desert to grasslands to open scrub forests of oak and juniper, then to forests of ponderosa pine, then finally aspen and firs. In Arizona, you can find all those transitions going up a single mountain. The setting of your book really depends on the specific route your characters take...as the transition would be quite different in the mid-section of the continent as opposed to travel in the intermountain west, or Appalachia, or the coastal areas.
