3. Plants and animals that live in the desert are conditioned to withstand extreme temperatures with minimal water.  ABIOTIC FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE DESERT BIOME Abiotic means lifeless. They are the different components that determine the physical space in which living beings inhabit; among the most important we can find water, temperature, light, soil, humidity, air and nutrients. They are the lifeless factors. Deserts are known for their extreme abiotic factors. Varied temperature and scarce fluvial precipitation. Sunlight, climatic factors such as: humidity (very low) and temperature (high during the day, very low at night); rocks, sand or very dry soil, atmospheric gases, very strong barometric pressure.

It is located 55 km southwest of the city of Piura. It is the widest area of ​​the coastal desert in Peru, it has an area of ​​more than 5000 square km.  This desert is an arid plateau formed by materials from the Tertiary, with little vegetation, which includes several intermittent lagoons.
