14 - Warrawagine, Western Australia

On the Oakover River, W of the Great Sandy Desert.

NPR story:

Located on the edge of the Great Sandy Desert in Western Australia, the Warrawagine Station has been one of the winners of climate change, thriving in nearly 24 inches of rain in the past year.

Warrawagine Station is home to more than 20,000 Droughtmaster cattle. The million-mile ranch depends on rainfall to get through the arid summer months, as the majority of the station has a desert-like landscape.

77 - Windmill Hill Flats, Gibraltar

Near the S tip of the peninsula.

At Windmill Hill Flats we find a rather hostile environment: a flat, wind-lashed terrain, with thin, poor stony soil. Despite all this, Windmill Hill is a treasure-house of plant species. In Spring it is a riot of colour, albeit for a brief period. Here we find a number of species which are not found elsewhere on the Rock, including Crocus serotinus salzmannii (Southern Autumn Crocus); Salvia verbenaca (Wild Clary); Echium parviflorum (Small-flowered Bugloss); Plantago serraria (Saw-toothed Plantain); Hedysarum coronarium (Italian Sainfoin); Mantisalca salmantica; Minuartia geniculata (Pink Sandwort); Tetragonolobus purpureus (Winged Asparagus Pea); Lathyrus annuus (Annual Yellow Vetchling). Other important plants found here better than anywhere else on the Rock are Ornithogalum orthophyllum (Star of Bethlehem); Romulea clusiana (Romulea); Gynandriris sisyrinchium (Barbary Nut); Borago officinalis (Borage); Ecballium elaterium (Squirting Cucumber); Echium plantagineum (Purple Viper's Bugloss).

50 - Kapp Wien, Jan Mayen Island, Norway

View Larger Map

On the E coast of the Sør-Jan peninsula. The island is about halfway between Norway and Greenland. A little wikihistory:

The first known discovery of the island was in 1614. There are earlier claims and possible discoveries: Some historians believe that an Irish monk, Brendan, who was known as a good sailor, was close to Jan Mayen in the early 6th century. He came back from one of his voyages and reported that he had been close to a black island, which was on fire, and that there was a terrible noise in the area. He thought that he might have found the entrance to hell.

88 - Wadi (Uad) El Jat, Western Sahara

Runs N to El Aaiún.

(c) The Oued el Jat
General: The Saguiat el Hamra cuts through the Drafi Afrafir below the Springs of Messeit,and is joined by the Oued el Jat almost immediately to the east of these hills. This oued flowsfrom south to north, parallel with the line of the hills, joining the Saguiat el Hamra at Edchera(27°02'N/13°05'W). On the floor of this watercourse too, there is a series of marshy areas withmoist sands and small gueltas. The most important are in the Ugranat District and are, fromsouth to north, the Sebkhets Ugranat (26° 11 '-26°16'N/ 13°10'W) and El Jat (26°27'-26°38'N/13°07'W). These sandy pans are saline and subject to fairly frequent, albeit irregular,inundation, and there are some fresh water springs in the gorge walls.Flora & Fauna: Some trees grow along the oued, including Hyphaene thebaica andTamarix africana, and marshy patches support grasses, sedges, rushes and reeds. We haveno details of the fauna.Human Impact & Utilisation: We have no information.Conservation Status: Unprotected
