hm I just looked at the wikipedia page quoting extreme temperatures up to 50°C but the challenge in the desert definitely is the huge fluctuation - considering it can go down as far as −40°C for Gobi.
Overall, this sounds like another point for thick, heavy tents (or in terms of the urban jungle: thick brick walls here in Europe keep wonderfully cool in summer and warm in winter.)
But I can also see how the a/c is probably one thing they do for keeping morale up... so this might not only be a thermic/physical problem.
