The Tempe QuadranglE lies in the broacl valley of me Phoenix Basin, and includes parts of t he Cities of Tempe, Scottsdale, and Phoenix. The quadrangle has been intensely urba nized ex­ cept for t he Indian Reservation to the east, the Salt River channel east-west across the center, and Papago Park Pediment rlOrth of the river. Total relief is 645 feet (197 m), ranging from 1100 feet 1 ~f=Jj f l/t- '1~;fi1t~ (336 m) in the Salt Aiver bed to 1746 fee t (532 m) at the summit of Bam9fi Butte.

GEOLOGY Southem Arizona lies in the Basin and Range Province, characte rized by alternating broad, elongate !;)asins and long, narrow mountain ranges. This unique physiography resulted from e period of r ~ional b l oc k - f ault in ~ along stoop, normal faults, tha t began in Arizona approximately 17 million years ago. Basin and Range faulting is the result of ex tension due to thinnin g of the earth'S crulit. Vertical movament of crustal blocks created mountains on the up thrown sida and hasins on tha downthrown side. As erosion and downwasting lowered t he mountains, great thicknesses 01 clast ic sediments accumulated in the adjoining basins. GEOLOGIC HISTORY The earliest event recorded in the Tempe Quadrangle is the extrusion of silicic ash and lava flows, w hich were subsequently metamorphosed In Precambrian time producin g metamyolite. The metarhyolite is intruded by two granites. The relationship between those two granit es, Tovrea and Camelback Granites. is not evident within the quadrangle. The metamyolite and Camelback Granite show evidence of cataclastisis. During a period of faulting in mid-Tertiary time, the old rocks were uplifted to form moun­ tains. Alluvial fans formed at the !;)ase of these mountains, and thiCk deposits of coarse, angular rock debris accumulated Ithe Camel5 Head Formationl. These deposits were interbedded with ash and lava /lows extruded from local fiSSUHtS. The !:Illdesite of Tempe Butte has a radio!natric date of 17.6±O.4 million years (Scarborough and Will, 1979).

HilL and David A. Modeling Report No. 6 Hydrology Division - Groundwater Modeling April 1, 1 Abstract The Phoenix Active :Management Area groundwater flow model focuses on the hydrologic system of the Salt River Valley, the most intensive water use area of the state. The goal of the hydrologic study and modeling effort was to develop a quantitative tool to test various groundwater management scenarios. The predevelopment hydrologic system (circa 1900) of the Salt River Valley is analyzed. Various components of groundwater inflow and outflov,/ are identified. A predevelopment groundviater budget is presented. The total inflows and outflows were in approximate balance and equaled approximately 139J~OO acre-feet per year. The modern hydrologic system (1978-198:-1) is analyzed. The vari.ous components of groundv,:rner inflow and outflov<' are identified. Detailed descriptions of the methodologies used to analyze the components of flow are provided. A groundwater budget for the period 19/X-1 Y88 is presented. The total inflows were approximately 13.5 million acre-feet and the total outflow-, were approximately 14.0 million acre-feet The estimated decrease in the volume of groundwater in storage \\'US 0.5 rnillion acre-feet Various recommendations are provided to improve future data collection and analysis efforts.

  • Geologic Map of the Hedgpeth Hills 7.5' Quadrangle, Maricopa County, Arizona
    Geologic Map of the Hedgpeth Hills 7.5' Quadrangle, Maricopa County, Arizona by Robert S. Leighty and Gary Huckleberry Arizona Geological Survey Open-File Report 98-18 November, 1998 Arizona Geological Survey 416 W. Congress, Suite 100, Tucson, AZ 85701 Includes 23-page text and 1:24,000 scale geologic map. This report was supported by the Arizona Radiation Regulatory Agency, withjunds provided by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency through the State Indoor Radon Grant Program, the U.S. Geological Survey via the STATEMAP program, and the Arizona Geological Survey. This report is preliminary and has not been edited or reviewed for conformity with Arizona Geological Survey standards INTRODUCTION The Hedgpeth Hills Quadrangle is located in the northwestern Phoenix metropolitan area, between Interstate 17 (I-17) and the Agua Fria River (Figure 1). The quadrangle is bounded by latitudes 33°37'30''N and 33°45'00"N, and longitudes 112°07'30"W and 112°15'00"W. The Hedgpeth Hills area is highly urbanized and is still undergoing rapid population growth. Thus, the knowledge of the distribution and character of bedrock and surficial deposits is important to make informed decisions concerning management of the land and its resources. Geologic mapping of the Hedgpeth Hills Quadrangle is related to other 1:24,000 scale mapping projects in and around the Phoenix metropolitan area (Figure 1). Geologic mapping of bedrock and surficial units in the quadrangle was based upon both field observations and interpretation of aerial photographs and soil surveys. Mapping of Quaternary surficial deposits was initially done by Huckleberry, whereas final mapping and interpretation of bedrock and surficial units was completed by Leighty.

  • Thesis and Dissertation Index of Arizona Geology to December 1979
    Arizona Geological Society Digest, Volume XII, 1980 261 Thesis and Dissertation Index of Arizona Geology to December 1979 From The University of Arizona, Arizona State University, and Northern Arizona University compiled by 1 Gregory R. Wessel Introduction This list is a compilation of all graduate theses and dissertations completed at The University of Arizona, Arizona State University, and Northern Arizona University concerning the geology of Arizona. The list is complete through December 1979. To facilitate the use of this list as a reference, papers are arranged alphabetically into five sec­ tions on the basis of study area. Four sections cover the four quadrants of the state of Arizona us­ ing the Gila and Salt River Meridian and Base Line (Fig. 1), and the fifth section contains theses that pertain to the entire state. A thesis or dissertation that includes work in two quadrants is listed under both sections. Those covering subjects or areas outside of the geology of Arizona are omitted. This list was compiled from tabulations of geology theses graciously supplied by each university. Although care was taken to include all theses, some may have been inadvertently overlooked. It is hoped that readers will report any omissions so they may be included in Digest XIII. Digest XIII will contain an update of work 114 113 112 III 110 I 9 completed at Arizona universities, as well as a 37 list of theses and dissertations on Arizona geol­ ogy completed at universities outside of the state. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the assist­ 36 ance of Tom L. Heidrick, who inspired the pro- N£ ject and who, with Joe Wilkins, Jr.

  • Chorographies, Ancient Ruins, and Placemaking in the Salt
    Casas Montezumas: Chorographies, Ancient Ruins, and Placemaking in the Salt and Gila River Valleys, Arizona, 1694-1868 by Linnéa K. E. Caproni A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved April 2017 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Victoria Thompson, Chair Philip VanderMeer Dallen Timothy ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2017 ABSTRACT This dissertation uses the narrative practice of chorography as a genre for assessing the history of placemaking in the Salt and Gila River region of central Arizona from the late seventeenth century through the mid-nineteenth century. Chorography concerns the descriptive representation of places in the world, usually of regions associated with a particular nation. Traditionally, chorography has served as a written method for describing geographical places as they existed historically. By integrating descriptions of natural features with descriptions of built features, such as ancient ruins, chorography infuses the physical landscape with cultural and historical meaning. This dissertation relies on a body of Spanish- and English-language chorographies produced across three centuries to interpret how Euro- American descriptions of Hohokam ruins in the Salt and Gila River valleys shaped local placemaking. Importantly, the disparate chorographic texts produced during the late- seventeenth, eighteenth, and early nineteenth centuries reflect ‘discursive continuity’—a continuity of thought spanning a long and frequently disregarded period in the history of central Arizona, in which ruminations about the ruins of ancient cities and irrigation canals formed the basis for what people knew, or thought they knew, about the little-known region. When settlers arrived in the newly-formed Arizona Territory in the 1860s to establish permanent settlement in the Salt and Gila River valleys, they brought with them a familiarity with these writings, maps, and other chorographical materials.
