The terribly dry conditions of the deserts is due to the year-round influence of subtropical high pressure and continentality. Western winds blow away from the 30-degree latitude belt, causing light surface winds and intense heat that evaporates moisture in the air. Low-latitude or tropical deserts are located…

Hydrogen and oxygen isotopic analyses were carried out for groundwater samples at different areas by many workers (Sonntag et al., 1978; Sultan et al., 1997; Sturchio et al., 2004; Patterson et al., 2005). The isotopic compositions of the Western Desert groundwater samples are similar over large areas and through various depths in the aquifer. δD and δ18O values range from -81 to -72‰ and from -1.9 to -10.6‰, respectively (Fig. 3). These waters show highest depletion in isotopic compositions…
