Description
This data package contains discrete data collected for the Mojave Desert Network Inventory and Monitoring Program Desert Springs protocol. This protocol is designed to monitor hydrological and ecological condition at 250 springs in Death Valley National Park (DEVA), Joshua Tree National Park (JOTR), Lake Mead National Recreation Area (LAKE), Mojave National Preserve (MOJA), and Parashant National Monument (PARA). Collected data include water quantity and water quality measurements as well as site condition information about dominant vegetation, invasive plants, disturbance, and wildlife evidence.
