Answer:

The two most common climates in Southwest Asia are arid and semi-arid.

Explanation:

s Southwest Asia, also known as the Middle East, is among the driest regions in the world. This region is dominated by two types of climate, arid and semi-arid. The arid type is commonly refered to as the desert, while the semi-arid is the steppe. The reason why these two climate types are dominant is because of the rain shadow effect from all sides, as well as the air masses not being suitable for creating rainfall.

The deserts tend to be most dominant in the interior of the region. They are very hot, in fact, the world record for highest temperature is recorded here, and they are very dry. The steppes are found around the deserts in general. They tend to have slightly milder temperatures and slightly more rainfall, enough to support small grasses and other highly adapted plants for dry and hot conditions.

Verdich [7]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

Climate oscillation or climate cycles are a recurring oscillation within the global or regional climates and their fluctuations produce varying climatic cells and pressures often occurring on an interannual and multi annular basis.

On a decadal and millennium timescales.Current examples of the ENSO, Pacific oscillation, Antarctica, and arctic oscillation. like ENSO is characterized by flooding and drought conditions and the distribution of extreme conditions in the form of heat and cold waves.

Other cycles like the Piora oscillation, Little ice age, medieval warm period, retreating of glaciers and warming of the planet. All these cycles move on earth from the equator to tropics to temperate to polar areas and the continuous warming and cooling periods have altered the rate of spreading of the seafloor and oceanic basin.

Present warming has drastically created a major change in the evolution of species causing extinction and quick decomposition of resources. The release of carbon and methane gases over these years have raised the greenhouse effect at alarming rates.
