The Yuman peoples, who ranged across the western Sonoran and eastern Mojave Deserts from the 8th into the 16th centuries, practiced some farming but, like the Desert Archaic Indians, relied primarily on hunting and gathering. The Sinagua, probably Yuman descendents, lived in north central Arizona...
We analyzed the influences of interspecific interactions and environmental factors on rodent community assembly in Mojave Desert wetlands that support the endangered Amargosa vole (Microtus californicus scirpensis). A total of 4927 rodents in six species were captured from 2010 to 2021 within 15 marsh...

Native to the Mojave Desert in California, this Death Valley resident could survive in waters as warm as 108°F. It was only discovered in the 19th century and was found in only two outflow springs of the Amaragosa River system. Human development around the Tecopa Hot Springs around the mi...

The change in climate conditions and socio-development features may amplify the inclusion of heavy metals in soils either by weathering or contaminant inputs such as surface run-off, wastewater, sewage, and effluent, and has become a common but intense issue in various ecosystems [13,15,16,17...
These large-scale parks were located in CCDs in central eastern parts of California, where there are also deserts such as the Mojave Desert bounded by the Tehachapi Mountains, San Gabriel and San Bernardino Mountains. These areas are also bounded by Arizona and Nevada where the land cover is...
