Map showing general chemical quality of ground water in the Salina quadrangle, Utah

The general chemical quality of water was determined from quality-of-water data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey and cooperating State, local, and Federal agencies. Sources of data include springs, and wells that tap aquifers at depths of less than 1,000 feet. In areas where quality-of-water data are inadequate or lacking, the limits of dissolved solids are inferred from geologic data. More

Map showing landslides and areas of potential landsliding in the Salina quadrangle, Utah

The term “landslide” is broadly defined as any “downward and outward movement of slope-forming materials composed of natural rock, soils, artificial fills, or combinations of these materials. The moving mass may proceed by any one of three principal types of movement: falling, sliding, or flossing, or by their combinations” (Varnes, 1958). Landslides and areas of potential landslides are fairly co

Map showing length of freeze-free season in the Salina quadrangle, Utah

In general, long freeze-free periods occur at low elevations, and short freeze-free periods occur at high elevations. But some valley floors have shorter freeze-free seasons than the glancing foothills because air cooled at high elevations flows downward and is trapped in the valleys. This temperature pattern occurs in the western part of the quadrangle in Rabbit Valley, Grass Valley, and the Sevi
