Agroclimatology and Crop Ecology of Palestine and Transjordan and Climatic Analogues in the United States

PALESTINE is a land of sharp contrasts-arid wilderness and tilled fields; treeless, overgrazed, eroded hills and carefully managed plantings.Transjordan is largely an elevated plateau, a pastoral country, more arid, but with a relatively greater number of perennial springs and streams. The total area of present-day Palestine is about Io,430 square miles, which is about one-fifteenth of the area of the state of California. It might be described as nearly equal to the area of the coastal strip of California south of the Tehachapi Mountains-part of Santa Barbara County, all of Ventura, Los Angeles, and Orange Counties, and the parts of San Bernardino, Riverside, and San Diego Counties west of the mountains. The area of Transjordan is estimated to be about 34,700 square miles, somewhat more than three times that of Palestine
