170 THE FUTURE OF ARID LANDS 
in its proper time position, we will be able to correct this model 
as we go along. One of the eventual aims of this program in 
geochronology is to determine the specific climatic history of the 
Southwest for the last 50,000 or so years in as detailed a fashion as 
possible.
