Finnish-English translations for aavikko

desertI am thinking particularly of areas where the desert is literally burying the productive land. Tarkoitan varsinkin niitä alueita, joilla aavikko on kirjaimellisesti sanottuna hautaamassa tuottavaa maata alleen. There is a difference between wet ground such as in Bosnia and desert conditions such as in Iraq and Afghanistan. Bosnian kaltaisen kostean maaperän ja Irakin ja Afganistanin kaltaisten aavikko-olojen välillä on eroja. They were marooned on a desert island in the Pacific
