About deserts and extreme environments mind maps
GoConqr OriginalDeserts and Extreme Environments mind maps
These maps organize topics into connected branches. Some explore desert formation and drought, while others cover glacial landforms, Antarctica and the uses of the Alps. Case-study maps look at places including the Mojave and Thar deserts.
Choose a starting point
Try Drought - Causes and Effects if you want to trace connections between conditions and their effects. For a broader look at desert formation, start with Deserts, then follow a branch into a more specific map.
Study with the branches
Read one branch at a time, then cover it and explain its connections in your own words. Compare your explanation with the map before moving on. When you want to check what you remember in a different format, switch to a quiz on the unit page, then return to any branches you want to study again. Choose a map and see where its connections lead.
Frequently asked questions
Which mind map could I start with?
Start with Drought - Causes and Effects if you want to follow a specific topic through its causes and effects. For a broader look at how deserts form, try Deserts. You can then move to a case-study map to see how a particular place is organized.
Are these mind maps free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open and study without an account. A free account also lets you save quiz scores and make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes. The resources were made by GoConqr users, rather than by GoConqr.
Which levels or exams do these maps suit?
The collection is mainly for secondary-level study, and some resources mention GCSE Geography or A-level Geography. School students can use the maps to practice linking ideas, while teachers can look for material to use in lessons. Check an individual map to see which topic it covers.
