The location of deserts is dependent on two factors, latitude and global wind patterns. Most deserts are located between 15' and 35' latitude, both north and south of the equator. In terms of global wind patterns, most deserts are located within the Southeastern and Northeastern trade winds belt.
Between the equator and the North, pole there are 90 parallel lines of latitude and the north pole itself is Latitude 90 degrees north of the equator. Between the equator and the south pole there are also 90 equally spaced parallels and the south pole is Latitude 90 degrees south of the equator. The lines of longitude run from pole to pole and intersect the equator at right angles. Here too the lines, or degrees, are about 69 miles apart.
