SPG/TDC <br />08/2010 <br />SATANTA SERIES <br />The Satanta series consists of very deep well drained soils that formed in eolian deposits. These soils are on sand <br />sheets on paleoterraces of tablelands in the Central High Tableland (MLRA 72). Slopes range from 0 to 15 <br />percent. Mean annual temperature is 13 degrees C. (55 degrees F.) and mean annual precipitation is 48 <br />centimeters (19 inches) at the type location. <br />TAXONOMIC CLASS: Fine - loamy, mixed, superactive, mesic Aridic Argiustolls <br />TYPICAL PEDON: Satanta loam on an east facing, convex, 1 percent slope in a cultivated field at an elevation <br />of 854 meters (2802 feet).
