- High-density scrubs are found on lower bajadas, sloping less than 1.5%, whereas low-density scrubs occur on upper bajadas sloping more than 3%.
- Adjacent fans may merge to form a broad sloping surface, known as a bajada, at the foot of a mountain range.

- But the main barrier is the land itself, an expanse of sun-whitened, heat-hazed bajada telescoping the waist-high vegetation to nothing.
- This tends to confirm that the bajada slope represents a major axis of species compositional change.
- Tectonic uplands bordering active faults are usually drained by steep catchments feeding alluvial fans, adjacent examples of which coalesce to define continuous bajadas (base-of-slope deposits).
