ARID AND SEMI-ARID GEOMORPHOLOGY. Based on four decades of research by Professor Andrew S. Goudie, this volume provides a state-of-the-art synthesis of our understanding of desert geomorphology. It presents a truly international perspective, with examples from all over the world.
The semi-arid regions of the world are mainly peripheral to the arid cores just described, but in some cases they appear as small areas surrounded by more humid regions. Such is the case in the High Plains of the United States, where a semi-arid rather than arid climate is developed in the lee of the Rocky Mountains. Many

13 Μαΐ 2015 · This study analyzes areal changes and regional climate variations in global semi-arid regions over 61 years (1948–2008) and investigates the dynamics of global semi-arid climate change.
The Koppen arid and semi-arid areas include: BWh which is a hot, dry desert with annual temperatures above 18°C such as the Sahara. BShw which is a desert which rains during the hottest months such as Mali. BShs which is a desert which rains during the coldest months such as North Africa.
A semi-detailed first approximation study of the vegetation of an heterogeneous area, located in the Caribbean region is presented and the relations between physiognomy- and dominance-types and the formations are analyzed.
Here, we adopt a bioclimatic approach based on the K ̈oppen classification to focus on the evolution of warm semi-arid regions over the projected twenty-first century, following three socio-economic scenarios and 12 global climate models from the last IPCC exer-cise (CMIP5).
