	Deserts generate in areas with very high temperatures and are more likely to generate in areas with medium to high [[Minecraft:Biome#Erosion\|erosion]] values. They can generate in lower erosions, but usually as a separation between a [[Minecraft:badlands]] biome and the [[Minecraft:ocean]]s with [[Minecraft:stony shore]]s.

They can generate in lower erosions, but usually as a separation between a [[Minecraft:badlands]] biome and the [[Minecraft:ocean]]s with [[Minecraft:stony shore]]s.

	Deserts are often found bordering all badlands variants or [[Minecraft:mangrove swamp]]s. Other biomes they can border include all [[Minecraft:jungle]]s, [[Minecraft:savanna]]s, [[Minecraft:windswept savanna]]s, [[Minecraft:plains]] and [[Minecraft:forest]]s.

Other biomes they can border include all [[Minecraft:jungle]]s, [[Minecraft:savanna]]s, [[Minecraft:windswept savanna]]s, [[Minecraft:plains]], and [[Minecraft:forest]]s.

	In coastal areas, deserts border [[Minecraft:warm ocean]]s. Unlike most biomes, they do not generate [[Minecraft:beach]] biomes along the coastline, though [[Minecraft:stony shore]]s do generate if erosion is low. [[Minecraft:River]]s are common, and tend to have less water and more dry grassland, with [[Minecraft:oak]] trees.		In coastal areas, deserts border [[Minecraft:warm ocean]]s.

	A '''desert''' is an expansive arid [[Minecraft:biome]] mainly consisting of [[Minecraft:sand]]. It is notable for its many structures such as [[Minecraft:desert pyramid]]s and [[Minecraft:village]]s, and its dangerous [[Minecraft:hostile mob]] variants.
