The headwaters are located in the La Panza range with the highest point at approximately 3600-feet. The confluence of San Juan Creek with the Estrella River occurs at Shandon. The dominant land use is agriculture. The San Juan Creek Valley is generally used most intensively for agriculture because of better soils and water availability. Irrigated production has increased during the last 10 years, particularly in vineyards and alfalfa. Dry farming and grazing operations encompass the rest of the agricultural uses. The riparian forest and a portion of the adjacent upland areas associated with the Estrella River and San Juan Creek in the vicinity of Shandon are important wildlife habitat, and serve as important corridors for wildlife movement. San Joaquin kit fox and Western burrowing owl occur in open grasslands. Another important wildlife movement corridor is located near the base of the hillside near the eastern edge of Shandon.

  • Oil, Natural Gas, and Coal Exploration in U.S. Public Lands
    Sara Diercks Oil, Natural Gas, and Coal Exploration in U.S. Public Lands The purpose of this project is to discover where, in U.S. public lands, we find the presence of oil and natural gas and coal fields. After identifying where these fields are located, I have determined what percentage of each public land they cover. To understand current explorations in public lands, I have used web mapping to display locations of already operating oil and natural gas wells and coal mines. Public lands in this project includes U.S. National Parks and Bureau of Land Management National Monuments and National Conservation Areas. Hawaii and outlying territories have not been included in this project due to lack of significant data. The findings in this project allow us to determine which national parks, monuments, and conservation areas are most at risk to drilling or mining based on the percentage of oil and gas fields or coal fields within their boundaries. To complete this project I used geoprocessing and overlay analysis operations. To begin, I used the add geometry attribute tool to calculate the area of each public land in square miles. I also used the clip tool on the oil and gas fields and coal fields so that we only have the data for the fields in the U.S. I then used the intersect tool to find only those areas in which the oil and gas fields and coal fields intersect with a public land. This can lead to multiple entries for the same public land in the attribute table, so to combine these repeat entries, I performed a dissolve operation, preserving the park name, calculated area, and label.
