Climate & Landscape
Schematic block diagram, not to scale: the top shows the relief and the front face a cross-section, coloured by soil and rock type.
- From west to east, Lodi changes from flat, low plains and old river terraces to rolling hillsides; the Sierra Nevada foothills form its eastern border.
- The Mokelumne and Cosumnes rivers, which rise in the Sierra Nevada, brought soils rich in granitic minerals; the Mokelumne River area is defined by deep Tokay sandy loam, the eastern hills by gravelly or cobbled Redding clay, and other districts by San Joaquin sandy clay loam over a shallow hardpan.
- Lodi has a Mediterranean climate of warm days and cool evenings, moderated by breezes drawn inland through the Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta.
