Climate:
The sahara's climate consists of basically two sub-climates, a dry subtropical climate in the north and a dry tropical climate in the south.
The dry tropical climate is generally characterized by mild , dry winters, a hot dry season just before the rainy season, and an annual temperatue cycle. The dry subtropical climate, however is characterized by annually high temperatue ranges , cold winters, hot summers and two rainy seasons.
The Sahara desert is sparsely covered with various types of vegetation ranging from grasses, shrubs, and trees in highlands which are saline-tolerant plants found in saline depressions.
One characteristic of the vegetation found in the Sahara is that these species must be able to adapt to unreliable precipitation and excessive heat.
The most common types of grasses found on the plains include Eragrotis , Panicum and Aristida.
This is a very nice and informative blog which defines the climate and vegetation of Sahara desert.
