World’s Most ‘Unproductive’ Desert: Annual Rainfall 1600mm, 300 Times That of the Sahara
When it comes to deserts, the first thing that comes to mind is the endless yellow sand, and the line 'Lonely smoke rises straight, the setting sun is round' perfectly encapsulates this vast expanse of yellow sand. We all know that desert environments are extremely arid, and only a small number of plants can survive. But there is a desert in Brazil that not only has a non-extremely dry environment, but also has a large number of fish and shrimp thriving in the desert.
This desert is the largest coastal desert in Brazil, located on the northeast coast of the Parque Nacional da Lagoa Encantada, and its most special thing is that the sand in the desert is all white, instead of the common yellow, as if a white silk covers the ground, which is very spectacular.
According to statistics, the annual rainfall in this desert is 1600mm, which is rare in a desert, this is the least industrious desert in the world, and the annual rainfall of this desert is 300 times that of the Sahara Desert. Such abundant rainfall also forms ponds, and the fish and shrimp in them swim in groups without fear of dryness.
The busiest time for tourists is from July to September, because the rainfall during this period is very high, and a large amount of rainwater accumulates in the deserts concentrated in pits, forming a string of pearls surrounding this desert, and the scenery of fish and shrimp swimming in groups attracts tourists, and they can't help but marvel at the wonders of nature. Here, you can also swim in naturally formed water ponds, so tourists can enjoy the scenery and experience it at the same time, which is a win-win.
The reason for this special scenery is due to the interaction of wind and tides. Because there are two large rivers near the desert, the waves of the sea hit the sand and form a sand pit, thus creating this special scenery. So, the power of the natural environment is beyond measurement and incalculable. The most peculiar natural landscape needs to be protected by humans. While enjoying the beauty, we must also protect the environment.
