Why Australia is known as the Dry Continent? Explain the main physiological features of the Australian Continent.

Australia is the second-driest continent in the world, with mean annual rainfall less than 600mm for more than 80 per cent of Australia.

Australia is so dry because we sit under the subtropical high-pressure belt, which encourages the air to push down, preventing the lift required for rain. Being under the high-pressure belt is enough to make it dry, but there are other systems called climate drivers that can make things worse from one year to the next.

El Nino has become a bit of a household name after it got a lot of press during the millennium drought.

El Nino is a phase of the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO), the phenomena that drives the dominant flows of air over the Pacific Ocean.It is commonly associated with drought in the east of Australia because it leads to more air being pushed down, which again prevents rain.

Australia may be dry, but we are not the only place to get droughts.
