The Salt Watershed (HUC 17040105) covers an area of about 1,262 square miles in central Arizona, USA. The hydrology of the watershed is highly influenced by seasonal monsoons and snowpack. The area receives most of its precipitation during the summer monsoon season, which runs from July to September. The watershed also receives snow during the winter months, which contributes to the surface water flow during the spring melt. The watershed includes several large reservoirs, including Roosevelt Lake and Apache Lake, which are important sources of water supply for the region. The reservoirs store water from the winter snowpack and monsoon season, which is used for irrigation, drinking water, and recreation. The watershed has experienced drought conditions in recent years, with decreased snowpack and lower reservoir levels. Climate change is expected to exacerbate these trends, leading to increased water scarcity and potentially more frequent and severe droughts in the future.
