Data on annual and perennial plants were collected during four survey years (1989, 1993, 1997, and 2012) at a 7.77 sq. km the Desert Tortoise Research Natural Area in the western Mojave Desert as part of a long-term research project on populations and habitat of the threatened desert tortoise (Gopherus agassizii) spanning 34 years.
