Calansho Desert (Sarīr Kalanshiyū, Calansho Serir) is a desert in eastern Libya in Al Wahat District.[1] It is part of the Sahara and has a hot desert climate (BWh).[2] It is primarily rocky in the north and center, but forms part of the "Great Sand Sea" to the east and contains the Calanshio Sand Sea to the south. As Sarīr is the only settlement in the Sarīr Kalanshiyū. The Sarir oil field is located in the western Sarīr Kalanshiyū. It is currently thought that the ancestral Nile flowed through what is now the Calansho Desert during the Miocene.[3][4] ClimateLike most inland deserts it is hot during the day and cold at night, with the average annual temperature being around {{Convert|25|°C|°F}}. The warmest month is August, when the average temperature is {{Convert|36|°C|°F}} and the coldest is January, with {{Convert|12|°C|°F}}.[5] The average annual rainfall is less than {{Convert|30|mm|in}}. The wettest month is May, with an average rainfall of {{Convert|5|mm|in}}, and the driest is July, with {{Convert|1|mm|in}}.[6] Notes and references1. ^{{GEOnet2|32FA88079FDC3774E0440003BA962ED3|Sarīr Kalanshiyū (Approved)}}, National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA); {{Cite web|title=Satellite view at Geonames.org |url=http://www.geonames.org/85836/sarir%20kalanshiyu.html}} 2. ^{{Cite journal|last1=Peel |first1=Murray C. |last2=Finlayson |first2=Brian L. |last3=McMahon |first3=Thomas A. |year=2007 |title=Updated world map of the Köppen-Geiger climate classification |journal=Hydrology and Earth System Sciences |volume=11 |pages=1633–1644 |doi=10.5194/hess-11-1633-2007 |url=http://hydrol-earth-syst-sci.net/11/1633/2007/hess-11-1633-2007.pdf }} 3. ^{{Cite journal|author1=Carmignani, Luigi |author2=Salvini, Riccardo |author3=Bonciani, Filippo |year=2009 |title=Did the Nile River flow to the Gulf of Sirt during the late Miocene? |journal=Bollettino della Societa Geologica Italiana (Italian Journal of Geoscience) |volume=128 |issue=2 |pages=403–408 |url=https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Luigi_Carmignani/publication/256483636_Did_the_Nile_River_flow_to_the_Gulf_of_Sirt_during_the_late_Miocene/links/55ed856c08aeb6516268e670.pdf |doi=10.3301/IJG.2009.128.2.403}} 4. ^{{Cite journal|author1=Salvini, Riccardo |author2=Carmignani, Luigi |author3=Francionib, Mirko |author4=Casazzaa, Paolo |year=2015 |title=Elevation modelling and palaeo-environmental interpretation in the Siwa area (Egypt): Application of SAR interferometry and radargrammetry to COSMO-SkyMed imagery |journal=Catena |volume=129 |pages=46–62 |doi=10.1016/j.catena.2015.02.017 }} 5. ^temperatur data from {{Cite web|title=NASA Earth Observations Data Set Index |publisher=National Aeronautics and Space Administration |url=http://neo.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/dataset_index.php }} 6. ^{{Cite web|title=NASA Earth Observations: Rainfall (1 month - TRMM) |publisher=National Aeronautics and Space Administration |url=http://neo.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/view.php?datasetId=TRMM_3B43M}} External links
