desert's
Sahara-like region's trait
Desert's is the possessive form of desert—either the arid landscape or the act of abandoning.
A desert's climate is harsh and dry.
A desert's silence can be profound.
Less commonly, it relates to deserting: The soldier's desert's timing couldn't have been worse.
The possessive of the plural deserts (as in "just deserts") would be deserts'.
