assessment of characteristics and patterns as identified on base maps, i.e.,

grid was simulated on areas not subdivided by the U.S. Public Survey.
Geological Survey topographic quadrangles provided the mapping basis.
Elevation of each sample point was
read directly from U.S. Geological Survey topographic quadrangles, and was
recorded to the nearest 100 -foot class.
Rock type and geologic formation
were determined at each sample point
by classifying the point in terms of
descriptions from geologic maps of
counties within the Salt -Verde River
Basin prepared by the Arizona Bureau
Slope and aspect were described at
each sample point by utilizing a topographic sampler (Lee, 1963), developed for ascertaining slope steepness
and orientation of mountainous landscapes from topographic maps. The
original "sampler" was modified to
facilitate estimation of slope to the
of Mines. An initial classification by
rock type indicated a limited extent
of metamorphic rocks on the Basin,
precluding subsequent geologic formation descriptions within this rock

PRESENTATION OF SURVEY INFORMATION
To facilitate data presentation, the
survey information has been organized
to describe (a) the Salt -Verde River
Basin, (b) the Salt River Basin, and (c)
the Verde River Basin. Additionally,
smaller watersheds representing areas
of particular interest in terms of natural resource products and uses have
been delineated and characterized;
these watersheds are the Black River
and White River in the Salt River Basin,

has been made. The survey information cannot be considered error -free,
however.

APPLICATIONS OF SURVEY INFORMATION
The basic survey information provided in this report can be used by
land management planners in many
ways to assist in determining potential productivities of natural resource
products and uses.
Differences in the radiation balance
between areas, important in the hydrologic cycle, photosynthetic processes, and other natural phenomena,
are often considered largely a function
of solar beam irradiation (Frank and
Lee, 1966). The magnitude of this parameter is dependent on the solar
constant, the influence of the atmosphere in depleting direct solar energy,
and the geometry of a site with respect

proportional to
the angle of incidence, which, in turn,
depends on latitude, time of day and
of year, and slope steepness and oriis
entation.
Characterizations of slope and aspect relations, coupled with knowledge of latitude and arbitrarily specified time of day and of year, can be
used in conjunction with appropriate
tables (Frank and Lee, 1966 to develop estimates of potential solar beam
irradiation. These estimates can be
developed for each land unit described
in this report.

relation to defining temperature and
precipitation gradients. These gradients, in turn, have an effect on different natural phenomena (e.g., evapo-
The elevation characteristics provide
basic data necessary to develop hypsometric relationships (Wisler and Brater,
1959), which are useful in evaluating
temperature and precipitation gradients.
The rock type and geologic formation information may yield information
as to the potential for natural resource
products and uses, both present and
future. These data, along with descriptions of pertinent soil properties, can
possibly be used to index biotic and
hydrologic productivity strata for land
management planning purposes.
Finally, knowledge of ownership
patterns within a land unit is often
prerequisite to the development of
policy relative to the implementation
of management systems.
