This tends to confirm that the bajada slope represents a major axis of species compositional change. |

But the main barrier is the land itself, an expanse of sun-whitened, heat-hazed bajada telescoping the waist-high vegetation to nothing. |
|
The closest major one to the south is Swallow Canyon, which features a large cottonwood grove out on the bajada in front of it. |
|
They grade both northward and southward into coalesced alluvial fans forming the bajada that flanks the margins of the mountains. |
|
Ephemeral stream channels are organized hierarchically on the bajada slopes from the mountains to the valley bottoms. |
|
All transects were located on the eastern bajada slope of Mount Summerford. |
|
The very presence of ironwoods along a bajada slope may increase bird diversity by 63 percent. |
|
Adjacent fans may merge to form a broad sloping surface, known as a bajada, at the foot of a mountain range. |
|
The flood of January I was a recurrence of the process that built the Montrose-La Crescenta bajada slope and the Glendale fan. |
|
Key distinguishing features are the presence of broadly horizontal erosion surfaces and overlying axial river alluvium inset into bajada deposits in the former case. |
