Ecosystem Concepts
Abstract. Abiotic factors are the primary reason for the differentiation of deserts from other ecosystems. Fundamentally, it is the low rainfall that deserts experience that differentiate them from other habitats. Rainfall in deserts tends to fall in pulses, which can vary considerably in their magnitude and timing.

The desert ecosystem also offers a great opportunity to assess the effects of temperature and water, limiting factors in desert ecosystems, both of which can impact genetic diversity in species through increased biotic interactions in terrestrial ecosystems (Moya‐Laraño, 2010).

What are Biotic factors: Depending on the region: In the desert, only some animals survive the camel (which can lose three-quarters of its weight in water), kangaroo rat, sudo bowl mouse, scorpions, variety of snakes, lizards, hawks, roadrunners, spiders. As in wildlife, only some plants survive.

1). Sahara Autotrophs (as one of the Biotic Factors in the Sahara Desert) Autotrophs in the Sahara Desert, like in any other terrestrial ecosystem, are very vital as biotic components. Autotrophs c an be described as organisms (such as plants ), that a re capable of produc ing their own food through the process of photosynthesis.

Biology Dictionary Subscribe to Our Newsletter A desert is a dry and barren ecological region that can be in either hot or cold climates. Examples of hot deserts are the Sahara Desert in Northern Africa and the Arabian Desert in the Middle East.
What Are the Biotic and Abiotic Factors in Deserts?
Desert ecosystem consists following abiotic factors: The desert ecosystem is characterized by high temperatures during the day and low temperatures at night due to the lack of vegetation to regulate temperature. The desert ecosystem has low precipitation levels, which can lead to water scarcity for both plants and animals.

1). Producers: One of the Mojave Desert Biotic Factors Producers are one of the fundamental biotic factors in the Mojave Desert ecosystem. These organisms c an be found at the bottom of the desert food web, and are instrumental in providing chemical bioenergy for the entire ecological community.
Biotic And Abiotic Factors Of Desert Ecosystem
Desert ecology is the study of interactions between both biotic and abiotic components of desert environments. A desert ecosystem is defined by interactions between organisms, the climate in which they live, and any other non-living influences on the habitat.

There are a number of abiotic factors that have important impacts on the desert environment. Clearly, the most important of these is rainfall or, in some cases, other sources of precipitation such as fog, snow, or ice.

Biotic Factors in Deserts ••• Updated July 16, 2018 By Kirsten Campbell The low rainfall and high rates of evaporation in desert landscapes combine to form a very dry, or arid, environment. Deserts receive the bulk of their annual rainfall during a single season, so desert biota must endure long drought periods.

australian desert biotic factors. In a desert, the abiotic factors include sunshine, minerals and air. Every organism consumes either a plant or an animal of a specific form. Despite the barren and harsh nature of deserts, most of them are full of life. The desert biome is an ecosystem that forms from the low level of rainfall it receives each.
