Both places are dry, but temperatures vary in the two as the names suggest, hot and cold.
• Hot deserts are found in many tropical places of the world while cold deserts are found towards the Polar Regions or on mountains.
• Precipitation is low in both biomes, but evaporation is much higher in the hot desert than in the cold desert.
• Cold deserts experience long winters and short summers, but there are no seasonal effects taking place in hot deserts.
• Hot deserts feature the presence of reptiles and amphibians but not in cold deserts.
