If you think your baby has a fever, it's important to know exactly what his temperature is, so you'll need a good digital thermometer. We'll help you choose one. (Get more details in our thermometer buying guide.) Regular multi-use digital thermometers are sold in drugstores for less than $10.
The Great Victoria is the largest desert in Australia and consists of many small sandhills, grassland plains, areas with a closely packed surface of pebbles (called desert pavement or gibber plains) and salt lakes.
Although we usually think of deserts as being hot, the Great Basin Desert is often very cold and most of the precipitation that falls in the desert is snow. Much of the desert is at high altitudes of 3,000 to 6,000 feet or more. The Great Basin Desert is located between the Sierra Nevada Mountains and the Rocky Mountains. It is mostly in the state of Nevada, but also parts of California, Idaho, Utah, and Oregon.
