Data from Surficial Deposits in and around Canyonlands 

National Park, Utah

Introduction

This report presents data and describes the 

methodology for magnetic, geochemical, and textural measurements of sediment and soil, as well as 

age determinations of sites located in and around 

Canyonlands National Park, on the Colorado Plateau, southeastern Utah (fig. 1).

The data presented in this report are results 

of ongoing studies of American drylands, where 

numerous sites have been investigated to assess how 

climate change and land use affect the landscape, 

largely through geomorphic processes. In particular, the influence of eolian and fluvial processes on 

ecosystem dynamics, ranging from nutrient inputs 

to landscape evolution, is a central focus of these 

studies (Neff and others, in press; Reheis and others, in press; Reynolds and others, 2001; Reynolds 

and others, in press).

Methods

Site Selection

Many sites in and around Canyonlands National 

Park, Utah, were selected to include different geomorphic settings that contain sand sheets/dunes, 

playas, and fluvial/alluvial deposits (table 1; fig.1). 

Site selection was determined by strategies to examine a variety of plant communities, ecotones, occurrences of plant invasion, especially by cheat grass 

(Bromus tectorum), as well as different land-use 

histories and local bedrock. 

Virginia Park

Virginia Park is located in Canyonlands 

National Park (figs. 1 and 2). It is a sheltered basin 

of vegetated, stabilized sand dunes surrounded on 

three sides by walls of the Cedar Mesa Sandstone 

and bounded on the southwest by a canyon. This 

site was sampled from the fall of 1998 through the 

spring of 2000. The deposits sampled at this site 

consist of multiple sequences of locally derived 

sand separated by poorly to moderately developed 

soil that formed in the sand layers. The shallowest samples (0–10 cm) represent the most recent 

episode of significant eolian modification of the 

landscape, including dune formation, which likely 

ceased about 2 ka. Difficult access and lack of 

water have precluded livestock grazing at this site 

(Kleiner and Harper, 1972). It is the only such 

ungrazed site in this study.

Squaw Flat

The Squaw Flat site is located in Canyonlands 

National Park (figs. 1 and 3). The transect sampling 

and the soil pit sampling at this site occurred during 

the spring of 2000 and the fall of 2001, respectively. 

The upper sampling sites in the transect are in a 

low-angle (1–3o) sand-sheet that slopes away from 

the Cedar Mesa Sandstone. The lower sampling 

sites are from mixed alluvial-eolian deposits in a 

poorly drained area near the middle of a meadow. 

This site was grazed until 1974 (M.E. Miller, U.S. 

Geological Survey, oral commun., 2004).

Needles

The Needles area is located in Canyonlands 

National Park (figs. 1, 4a, and 4b). The sites in this 

area are in playa deposits interbedded with eolian 

sand sheets and were sampled in the fall of 1998. 

These sites were auger sampled to about 4 meters in 

depth. The bedrock in this area is the Cedar Mesa 

Sandstone. This site was grazed until 1974 (M.E. 

Miller, U.S. Geological Survey, oral commun., 

2004).

Mustard Patch

The Mustard Patch site (figs. 1 and 5) is near 

the eastern boundary of Canyonlands National Park 

and consists of eolian sand on a surface sloping 

away from Cedar Mesa Sandstone. This site was 

sampled during the spring of 2000. The upper part 

of this transect occupies a surface characterized 

by small coppice dunes representing recent eolian 

activity. The surface over the middle part of the 

transect generally is featureless, thereby representing a sand-sheet environment. The lowest sampling 

sites are in a mixed eolian sand-alluvial setting 

at the margin of a poorly drained valley oriented 

nearly 90o to the trend of the sampling transect. 

Grazing by domestic livestock ceased at this site 

in 1974 (M.E. Miller, U.S. Geological Survey, oral 

commun., 2004).

Gray’s Pasture

Grayʼs Pasture (figs. 1 and 6) is located in the 

Island in the Sky area of Canyonlands National 

Park. Samples were collected in the spring of 

2003 along a shallow-gradient slope away from the 

Navajo Sandstone. The sampled deposits consist 

mainly of eolian sand in small dune-forms in the 

upper half of the transect and in a mostly featureless 

surface in the lower half. The site previously was 

grazed until 1974 (M.E. Miller, U.S. Geological 

Survey, oral commun., 2004). 

The Grabens

The Grabens sites (figs. 1 and 7) are located 

in Canyonlands National Park and consist of alluvium, colluvium, and eolian sediment deposited 

within closed, fault-related depressions formed in 

the Cedar Mesa Sandstone. The auger hole samples 

were taken during the fall of 1998. The arroyo 

exposure was sampled during the fall of 1999, and 

the optically stimulated luminescence samples were 

collected during the fall of 2002. Grazing practices 

for the Grabens area are not directly known; however, nearby Chesler Park was previously grazed 

until 1964, and the Grabens area grazing practices 

likely followed those at Chesler Park (M.E. Miller, 

U.S. Geological Survey, oral commun., 2004).

Dugout Ranch

The Dugout Ranch site (figs. 1 and 8) is located 

approximately 7 km east of the Canyonlands 

National Park boundary. This site consists mainly 

of eolian sand deposited on a nearly flat surface. 

The bedrock in this area is the Chinle Formation, 

the Wingate Sandstone, and the Kayenta Formation. This site initially was sampled during the fall 

of 2001 and was resampled in the spring 2004 to 

assess the influence of documented wind erosion 

between sampling times. This site and the surrounding areas have been grazed by domestic livestock since the arrival of Anglo-American settlers 

in the 1880s (Loope, 1977) and is currently grazed, 

mostly in the spring.

Corral Pocket

The Corral Pocket site (figs. 1 and 9) is located 

approximately 4 km east of the Canyonlands 

National Park boundary and consists of a sandsheet and alluvial fan complex. The local bedrock 

consists of small exposures of Cedar Mesa Sandstone and overlying cliffs of Organ Rock Shale. 

The Organ Rock Shale contributes nearly all of the 

locally derived sediment to the sampled slope. This 

transect was sampled during the fall of 2000. The 

site is on Bureau of Land Management land and 

is currently grazed (M.E. Miller, U.S. Geological 

Survey, oral commun., 2004).

Meteorological Stations

The majority of sites presented in this report 

are in close proximity to climate monitoring equipment. Virginia Park, Corral Pocket, and Dugout 

Ranch sampling sites have Climate Impact Meteorological Stations (CLIM-MET) on site that are 

operated and maintained by the Central Region 

Earth Surface Processes team of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) (http://climchange.cr.usgs.

gov/info/sw/clim-met/). Another USGS CLIM-MET 

station is located in the Needles district of Canyonlands National Park near the staff residence area, 

approximately 1–2 km from the Needles sampling 

sites (http://climchange.cr.usgs.gov/info/sw/climmet/needles.html). The closest CLIM-MET station 

to the Squaw Flat and Mustard Patch sampling 

sites is located in Needles; however, the Mustard Patch sampling site also is in close proximity 

(~6 km) to the Corral Pocket CLIM-MET station 

(http://climchange.cr.usgs.gov/info/sw/clim-met/corral.html). The Virginia Park CLIM-MET station 

(http://climchange.cr.usgs.gov/info/sw/clim-met/

virgpark.html) is closest to the Grabens sampling 

sites. The nearest weather monitoring station to the 

Grayʼs Pasture sampling site is located in the Island 

in the Sky area of Canyonlands National Park and 

is operated and maintained by the National Park 

Service (http://www.wrcc.dri.edu/cgi-bin/cliMAIN.

pl?utcank). 

Sampling

Three sampling strategies were employed 

throughout the study area: (1) isolated deep auger 

holes, (2) transects that consist of several shallow 

(50 cm), small soil pits anchored by deep auger 

holes, and (3) soil pits (table 1). In addition, when 

possible, arroyo exposures were utilized for stratigraphic relations and sampling. 

The isolated deep auger holes were sampled 

approximately every 10 to 20 cm and ranged from 

2.5 to 4.0 meters deep. The shallow, small soil pits 

and deep auger hole transects are the most common sampling arrangement. The shallow, small 

soil pits and the top of the deep auger holes were 

sampled fairly consistently at 0–10 cm, 10–30 cm, 

and 30–50 cm. The deep auger holes that anchor 

the transects are as much as 2.29 meters deep and 

below 50 cm were sampled approximately every 10 

cm. Five larger soil pits (VP-1, VP-2, JN-1, JN-2, 

JN-3) were excavated at selected sites within the 

study area. The soil pits are all approximately 1 

meter deep and were channel sampled based on soil 

horizon designations. Arroyo exposures also were 

sampled based on soil horizon designations. 

The arroyo and graben exposures and the VPsoil pits were described (table 2) following Birkeland (1999). In some cases, the soil auger sequences 

were described similarly, but with less precision due 

to the lack of visible exposure and to mixing when 

the auger was reinserted into the hole. Approximate 

soil horizon boundaries were identified during the 

augering using changes in soil color, carbonate 

morphology, effervescence in HCl, and sediment 

texture.

Laboratory Analysis

Samples were analyzed at the USGS Earth 

Surface Processes soils and magnetics laboratories (Denver, Colo., United States of America) for 

hygroscopic moisture factor, calcium carbonate percent, particle size, and magnetic properties (table 3). 

The soil analyses followed the protocols outlined in 

Singer and Janitzky, (1986). Geochemical analysis 

was performed by the USGS Geologic Division 

geochemistry lab (Denver, Colo., United States of 

Methods
4 Particle-Size, CaCO3

, Chemical, Magnetic, and Age Data from Surficial Deposits around Canyonlands N.P., Utah

America). All samples were analyzed at <2-mm 

size fraction and in some cases magnetic properties 

were measured on the <63-μm size fraction (silt + 

clay). 

Age determinations were made by optically 

stimulated luminescence (OSL) and Carbon-14 

(14C) methods. Optically stimulated luminescence 

ages were determined at the Aberystwyth Luminescence Research Laboratory (Wales, United Kingdom). Radiocarbon samples were prepped at the 14C 

laboratory of the U.S. Geological Survey (Reston, 

Va.), and ages were determined by accelerator mass 

spectrometry (AMS) at the NSF-University of 

Arizona AMS laboratory (Tucson, Ariz.). Age data 

presented in this report, as well as other age data 

from the area, have been placed in stratigraphic and 

geomorphic context and can be found in Reheis and 

others, (in press).

Hygroscopic Moisture Factor

The hygroscopic moisture factor (table 3) is a 

measure of the moisture content of a sample at or 

near field conditions and is calculated by:

H = OD/AD, where

H = Hydroscopic Moisture Factor

OD = Oven-dry sample weight (105°C; 16 hrs)

AD = Air-dry sample weight

Calcium Carbonate Percent

Calcium carbonate percent (table 3) was measured using a Chittick apparatus (Dreimanis, 1962) 

as described by Machette (1986) whereby 6N HCl 

is applied to the sample and the gas evolved from 

the reaction displaces fluid within the Chittick 

apparatus. The volume of liquid displaced is used 

to calculate the percent of calcium carbonate in the 

sample.

CaCO3 % = (VCO2 * C)/WS, where

CaCO3 % = Calcium carbonate percent

VCO2 = The volume of liquid displaced during 

reaction in presence of HCl

C = Constant; (PB/TK)*0.16, where

PB = Barometric Pressure in Hg mm

TK = Temperature in degrees Kelvin

WS = Oven-dry sample weight (105oC; 16 hrs)

Particle-Size Analysis

Particle-size analysis was performed on the 

<2-mm size fraction using a Malvern laser analyzer 

(tables 3 and 4). Prior to analysis, all samples were 

prepared by digesting organic matter and CaCO3

using 30% H2O2 and 15% HCl, respectively. Prior 

to analysis, sodium hexametaphosphate was added 

to each sample to deflocculate clays. 

Geochemical Analysis

Samples were analyzed for chemical properties by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission 

spectrometry (ICP-AES) and inductively coupled 

plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) techniques 

(tables 3 and 5) (Lichte and others, 1987). All 

samples were analyzed on the <2-mm size fraction 

and were finely ground using a shatterbox.

Magnetic Properties

Magnetic properties were determined on a 

majority of samples, both <2-mm and, in some 

cases, <63-μm size fractions (tables 3 and 6). Magnetic properties determined included low frequency 

and high frequency magnetic susceptibility (MSlf, 

MShf), anhysteretic remanent magnetization (ARM), 

and isothermal remanent magnetization (IRM).

Magnetic Susceptibility

Magnetic susceptibility (MS) was measured by 

using a susceptometer with a sensitivity better than 

about 4 × 10-7 m3/kg. Samples were measured in 

a 0.1 mT induction at a low frequency of 600 Hz 

(MSlf) and high frequency of 6000 Hz (MShf). For 

each sample, the MS value was determined as the 

mean of four measurements. Frequency dependent 

susceptibility was calculated as:

FDMS = (MSlf – MShf)/MSlf.

Laboratory Induced Magnetization

Measurements of anhysteretic remanent magnetization (ARM) and isothermal remanent magnetization (IRM) experiments were made by using 

a high-speed spinner magnetometer. Anhysteretic 

remanent magnetization was imparted in a decreas-
 5

ing alternating field from a peak induction of 100 

mT and a DC bias of 0.1 mT. IRM magnetizations were generated at room temperature by using 

an impulse magnetizer. First, IRM was imparted 

in a 1.2T induction (IRM1.2T). The samples then 

were magnetized in the opposite direction by using 

an induction of 0.3T (IRM-0.3T). Hard isothermal 

remanent magnetization (HIRM) and the S-parameter were calculated as follows (King and Channel, 

1991):

HIRM = (IRM1.2T + IRM-0.3T)/2;

S = IRM-0.3T/IRM1.2T

Age Determinations

C-14

Charcoal within the alluvial deposits at the Virginia Park site was sampled and placed into plastic 

bags using metal trowels. The charcoal received 

a standard acid-alkali-acid pretreatment to remove 

post-depositional contamination. One milligram of 

carbon was collected from the charcoal by converting it to graphite over an iron catalyst. The graphite 

was pressed into a target and 14C dated using accelerator mass spectrometry. The raw 14C ages later 

were converted to calibrated years B.P. (cal yr B.P.) 

by using the CALIB program of Stuiver and others 

(2003) (table 7). Calibration of raw 14C ages corrects for known time intervals when atmospheric 

carbon concentrations deviated from modern values 

causing the appearance of an age that was too old or 

too young.

Optically Stimulated Luminescence

For OSL dating, samples were taken from 

outcrops and pits using PVC pipe hammered horizontally into freshly cleaned faces. Laboratory OSL 

measurements were performed using an automated 

Risø TL/OSL reader, equipped with blue LEDs (470 

nm) providing about 17 mW cm-2 power density and 

a beta source for irradiations. Three 3mm Hoya U340 filters were used to detect the OSL signal. To 

determine the equivalent dose (De) of each sample, 

a minimum of 24 aliquots were examined for a 

range of preheat temperatures between 160–300°C 

using the single-aliquot regenerative-dose (SAR) 

measurement procedure of Murray and Wintle 

(2000), which corrects for changes in the luminescence sensitivity. All OSL measurements were 

made at 125oC. Each aliquot yields an independent estimate of De

; the mean De of between 13–23 

aliquots was used to determine each 90–125-μm 

coarse-grained OSL age, and the 4–11-μm finegrained OSL ages were calculated using the mean 

De of between 19-22 aliquots (table 7). The uncertainty on De

 was calculated as the standard error of 

the mean for all samples. For further discussion of 

OSL methods, see Reheis and others, (in press).

Table 1. Site locations

[Location Name: Common names used to refer to each field site.

Site Type: The specific method used to sample: Transects consist of six to 15 sampling locations (0-50 cm deep) along a slope, usually intersecting different vegetation zones. Most transects are anchored by 

deep auger holes (< 3.5 m deep) at or near the top of the transect as well as at or near the base of the transect. Each location within a transect was sampled at three depths; 0-10 cm, 10-30 cm, and 30-50 cm. 

Soil Pits are hand dug excavations approximately 1 m deep, and samples were depth-integrated within each designated soil horizon. Auger Holes were excavated by hand using a sand bucket head and were 

sampled along the entire depth. Sampling for the upper portion of the auger hole was consistent with transect sampling (0-10 cm, 10-30 cm, and 30-50 cm); however, below 50 cm, sampling was guided by 

the depths obtained from each auger drive; usually on the order of every 10 cm. Samples from the auger holes were taken from the interiors of the largest, most intact clods of sediment within each bucketful. 

Arroyo Exposures were utilized for sampling and stratigraphic context when available and were sampled based on soil-horizon designations.

Sample Designation: Designations of each sampling site determined during sampling, and referred to during laboratory analysis and presentation of data.

Latitude/Longitude, Beginning/Ending: Location of each sampling site, reported in WGS84 decimal degrees. Beginning and Ending are applicable only to transects, and represent the top and bottom sampling sites of the transect, respectively.

UTM N/UTM E, Beginning/Ending: Location of each sampling site, reported in WGS84 datum. Beginning and Ending are applicable only to transects, and represent the top and bottom sampling sites of the 

transect, respectively]

Table 4. Particle size data

This table contains high-resolution particle-size data obtained using a laser particle size analyzer. In most cases, the particle size 

is displayed in accordance to the Wentworth scale (Wentworth, 1922); however, in a few instances the USDA scale (Soil Survey 

Staff, 1975) was used.

Values are reported as volume percent. Each value corresponds to the volume percent of the sample that has a grain size falling 

within that range.

, Chemical, Magnetic, and Age Data from Surficial Deposits around Canyonlands N.P., Utah * Corresponding Aberystwyth Luminescence Research Laboratory sample codes are as follows: OSL-1 = Aber/59CY1; OSL-2 = Aber/59CY2; OSL-3 = Aber/59CY3; OSL-4 = Aber/59CY4; OSL-5 = Aber/59CY5; OSL-6 = Aber/59CY6; 02U-3C = Aber/71CY3C; 02U-3B = Aber/59CY7; 02U-3A = Aber/71CY3A. ‡ ʼnʼ is the number of De determinations. § Concentrations of U, Th and K were calculated from laboratory-based thick source alpha counting (TSAC) and beta counting measurements of dried, powdered, bulk material, and are shown to 3 signifi- cant figures. || Dose-rate values (Gy/103 yr) have been rounded to 3 significant figures, but the total dose-rates and ages have been calculated using values prior to rounding. Dose-rates were calculated using an a-value of 0.040 ± 0.002 (Rees-Jones, 1995) where appropriate, and assuming a water content (assessed in the laboratory using sealed field samples, and expressed as % dry mass) of 4 ± 2% for samples OSL-1 to -6, 7 ± 3% for samples OSL-7 and 02U-3A, and 4 ± 3% for samples 02U-3C. The cosmic-ray dose rate was calculated for each sample based on the depth, altitude and geomagnetic latitude (Prescott and Hutton, 1994). Central values are given for dose-rates – errors are incorporated into that given for the total dose-rate. ¶ Luminescence ages are expressed as thousands of years before 2000 A.D., and calculated to 1 decimal place. ** Sample OSL-5 shows scatter in the De distribution, believed to be the result of incomplete bleaching on deposition. For this sample, De ranges and age ranges are therefore presented in the table, all of which may overestimate the true depositional age.
