Extremely dry or characterized by aridity; relating to arid climates.
From Latin aridus (dry) + -id (adjective suffix). This term emerged in geological and climate description, though 'arid' alone became the more common form.
Argid is basically a scientist's way of saying 'desert-dry'—it appears in old geological reports describing regions with almost no rainfall, the kind of places where only specialized plants can survive.
