Desert refuge (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oasis

'desert refuge' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for oasis that I've seen before include "retreat" , "Fertile place like waterhole in desert" , "Fertile place in a desert, a watering hole" , "Famous group" , "quiet spot" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Mirror, the USA Today and the Universal.
