Describe the Climate of Desert Areas in Pakistan.

Difficulty: Medium

Climate of Desert Areas:

                 The climate of desert areas in Pakistan is too hot and dry. There is much difference between day and night temperatures. Heatwaves blow during day-time. Dust storms are also experienced. The southern areas of Punjab and northern, as well as southern areas of Sindh, have especially the characteristics of deserts. The people living here lead hard lives. This area receives very little rainfall. Therefore, people have to fetch water from far off distant places. The life is comparatively comfortable in the areas which have canals as a source of water.

Source of Income:

                 Rearing of sheep and goats is the major source of earning for the people of these areas.
