Upland

Terrestrial ecosystems found away from riparian zones, wetlands, springs, seeps, and dry washes.

Ecosystems consisting of vegetation not in direct contact with groundwater or other permanent water sources. (Source: Mojave-Southern Standards & Guidelines, BLM)

These areas are typically drier and support plant and animal communities adapted to limited water availability. In the Mojave Desert, uplands are home to species such as creosote bush, Joshua trees, and desert tortoises.
