Djanet

It rained on the dunes south of Djanet. The climate of the Sahara, the largest desert in the world, is highly variable from one region to another. While the northern fringe of the desert is subject to a regime of winter rainfall linked to atmospheric disturbances of the Mediterranean, the south knows a regime of summer rains associated with tropical depressions. Located between these two spheres of influence, the Central Sahara is very dry and can not receive rains of the year.
