Desert Studies Center

Multi tool use
Not to be confused with the Desert Laboratory in Arizona.

Main building of the Desert Studies Center at Zzyzx, California.
The Desert Studies Center (DSC) is a field station of the California State University located in Zzyzx, California, United States in the Mojave Desert. The purpose of the Center is to provide opportunities to conduct research, receive instruction and experience the Mojave Desert environment. It is officially operated by the California Desert Studies Consortium, a consortium of 7 CSU campuses: Dominguez Hills, Fullerton, Long Beach, Los Angeles, Northridge, San Bernardino and Cal Poly Pomona.
Before the Center, the site was the Zzyzx Mineral Springs and Health Spa, run by Curtis Howe Springer from 1944 to 1974 without federal permission. After Springer was ejected, the CSU negotiated usage of the abandoned buildings of the health spa with the Bureau of Land Management, and in 1976, they signed a five-year cooperative management study for the Desert Studies Consortium to manage 1,280 acres (520 ha) at Soda Springs. The consortium continues to manage the site.
The location is especially interesting to biologists because of the many unique species of animals and plants in the area, including the Saratoga Springs pupfish, the Mohave tui chub, and over 200 species of birds.
The center has a 10,000-watt solar panel array.
A few of California State University Fullerton's biology courses require students visit the center for a mandatory field trip to pass those courses.[1]
