Welcome 👋👋👋👋👋👋👋 geo part 6
✌️🌍 Sahara Desert 🏜️
* 📏 Size: 9.2 million sq km enormity; largest hot desert globally 🔥
* 📍 Location: Covers most of North Africa 🗺️; from Atlantic coast (west) 🌊 to Red Sea (east) 🌅.
* Boundaries 🚧:
* North: Mediterranean Sea 🌊 & Atlas Mountains ⛰️.
* South: Sudan 🇸🇩 & the Sahel region 🌾.
* 🗺️ Countries: Spans parts or all of Algeria 🇩🇿, Chad 🇹🇩, Egypt 🇪🇬, Libya 🇱🇾, Mali 🇲🇱, Mauritania 🇲🇷, Morocco 🇲🇦, Niger 🇳🇪, Sudan 🇸🇩, and Tunisia 🇹🇳.
* 🏞️ Landscape:
* Dominantly sand 🏖️; vast quantities of reddish sand dunes (ergs) 🏜️.
* Desert pavements of pebbles on flat sand sheets (regs) 🪨.
✌️☝️🌳 The Savanna 🦁
* 📍 Location: Transitional region between rainforest 🌴 and the Sahel grasslands 🌾.
* Description 📝: Tropical grassland with few trees and shrubs 🌴🌳.
* 🌿 Vegetation:
* Drought-resistant trees and shrubs 🌵.
* Trees and shrubs often shed leaves in the dry season 🍂 (adaptation to reduce water loss 💧).
* 🌳 Types:
* Woodland Savanna: Widely spaced trees (due to limited soil moisture in the dry season) 🌲, dense lower layer of grasses 🌾. Open, park-like appearance. Medium height trees with flattened or umbrella-shaped crowns ⛱️.
* Thorn Tree Tall Grass Savanna: (Implied but not described in detail in this text) 🌵🌾
* 🌲 Tree Adaptations:
* Xerophytic forms with small leaves and thorns 🌵.
* Broad-leaved deciduous species that shed leaves in the dry season 🍂.
* Fire-resistant 🔥.
* 🔥 Fire: Frequent fires occur in the dry season 🔥.
✌️✌️🌾 The Sahel 🐪
* 📍 Location: Semiarid region south of the Sahara Desert 🏜️, forming a transitional zone. Part of the northern Sudan region 🇸🇩.
* Meaning 📜: "Shore" in Arabic; the southern edge of the Sahara.
* 📏 Extent: 5,000 km stretch from Mauritania & Senegal 🇸🇳 (west) to Somalia 🇸🇴 (east).
* 🗺️ Countries: Mauritania 🇲🇷, Senegal 🇸🇳, Mali 🇲🇱, Niger 🇳🇪, Nigeria 🇳🇬, Burkina Faso 🇧🇫, Chad 🇹🇩, Sudan 🇸🇩, and Eritrea 🇪🇷.
* 🏞️ Landscape:
* Grasslands and savannahs 🌾.
* Scrub areas to the north 🌿, trees (mainly acacias) in the south 🌳.
* Natural pasture; low grass and tall herbaceous perennials 🌱.
* 🧑🌾 Land Use: Forage for livestock (camels 🐪, pack oxen 🐂, cattle 🐄, and sheep 🐑).
* 🔄 Transition: Similar to savanna, but merging into desert due to human activity & climate change ⚠️.
