The Maltese archipelago, occupying an area of c.316 KM 2 and situated in the
Central Mediterranean consists of the inhabited islands of Malta and Gozo and a number of uninhabited islets and rocks. The islands are composed mainly of limestone of Oligo-Miocene age. Soils are young, show little horizon development, and are very similar to the parent rocks. The main geomorphologic features are karstic limestone plateau, hillsides covered with clay taluses, and gently rolling limestone plains. The southwest coast is mainly steep sea-cliffs and the land tilts gently seawards to the northeast. The islands are driven by valleys which drain runoff during the wet season. The average annual rainfall is c. 530 mm of which some 85% falls during the period October to March. The mean monthly temperature range is 12-26°C. The islands are very windy and sunny. Natural water resources depend on percolating rainwater which collects in limestone aquifers. The flora and fauna are rich with some 2,000 species of plants and more than 3,000 species of animals recorded to date; a relatively large number of species are endemic.
