Desert Arroyo
An arroyo found in the desert is a dry creek or stream bed that seasonally fills and flows after various rainfalls. An Arroyo is a wash, gulch, or dry creek that temporarily flows with water after rainfall or seasonal weather patterns. They provide water to the desert biosphere and has a specific biome with vegetation dependent on seasonal flow. They are often found in drainages or flat bottoms of canyons that don’t have water resources most of the year thereby hosting very arid independent vegetation.
