The types of air masses which affect the Lut Desert depends on the time year. Parcels head toward the subtropics, where they will eventually sink in concert with the belt of subtropical high-pressure systems that girdles the globe at latitudes in the general vicinity of 30 degrees north and south.” The latitude of Kerman is 30.2839 N. “On reaching the lid, rising air parcels fan out laterally, heading poleward in both hemispheres and thus becoming part of the upper branches of the Hadley Cells. The latitude of the Lut Desert doesn’t just tell us that it is in a prevailing North Easterly wind pattern, but also indicates that it falls into the subtropical high belt. ![]() For deserts, including Middle-Eastern ones, they typically fall into subtropical highs. Due to the latitude of Kerman, the wind pattern associated with it is a prevailing North Easterly. Important: All weather data is analyzed from Kerman, Iran.Ī large portion of the Winds come from the North East, and a small portion of the winds come from the South as well. The driest dew point is in June, and the most humid dew point is in January. Throughout the year the dew point varies between 11☏ and 41☏.

The warm season in Kerman typically lasts between the months of May and August. The coldest month of the year is January, with a high temperature of 53 degrees Fahrenheit and a low temperature of 28 degrees Fahrenheit.

Important: All weather information was recorded from the neighboring province of Kerman, Iran.Īs previously stated above, the Lut Desert is located in the northeast region of Kerman, Iran. It is also known as Iran's largest basin on Iran's geographic plateau and is surrounded by mountain ranges. Being so close to the equator, the Lut desert occasionally experiences some of the most extreme temperatures and barely receives any annual precipitation. The Lut Desert is situated relatively close to the equator, having coordinates of 30☃6’ 18 N 59 ° 04’04 E. This massive desert is measured to be about 199 miles wide and 298 miles long. This desert is recorded to be one of the driest places on the globe and is recorded as the world's 25th largest desert. The Lut Desert is located in a province in Iran, called Kerman, which also neighbors the Baluchistan province. There is no life in the area of 30 thousand kilometers at the heart of Lut.These photos are great representations of the Lut Desert and shows the dry terrain associated with it as well. There are 100 hectares of salt in egg shape in the Shahdad desert that there is nowhere in the world like that. The legendary Kalut city was created about 20 thousand years ago with water and wind erosion. Shahdad Kalut is the most beautiful natural phenomenon and most fascinating phenomena in the Iranian desert that there is nowhere in the world like that. The area is known to be one of the "Geothermal poles" among geologists. Therefore, this place is called an elf city. A town with no resident as if it is constructed for spirits. When suddenly an exotic earth structures to be seen in the Lut desert, and it continues as far as the eye can, it seems that you entered into a town. The Kalut is said to a sand mountain created by the effect of the dominant erosional agent in desert, i.e., wind making fascinating forms and shapes. Kalut, the largest cloddish city and the largest natural effects, in the Lut desert, is the unique desert complications. ![]()
