What reading level is The Salton Sea; a Study of the Geography, the Geology, the Floristics, And the Ecology of a Desert Basin book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Occasionally, in drier and sandier spots, they form a pure growth, marked, among their somber neighbors, by the bright yellow of their abundant autumnal blossoms. In a variety of unstable eco- logical forms, some of which have received names as species, Isocoma veneta is the most widely distributed plant of the desert. In other forms it is found in all except the moun- tainous parts of southern California. Its value as a phyto-geographical index is, therefore, inconsiderable. In the drier parts... of these alkaline flats it attains its greatest size and its most abundant inflorescence. It is here several-stemmed, and the clusters of a few heads, borne on pedicles 1 or 2 inches long, are produced in large open panicles.
In all these associations there is a singular dearth of herbaceous plants. A not infre- quent Heliotropium curassavicum spreading over the ground and an occasional Conyza coulteri are the only species of any importance.
Not less than five trees grow in this formation, but a consideration of them is reserved for a subsequent page.
