Palo Alto Battlefield anchors the southern portion of this landscape, marking the site of significant historical conflict within the coastal prairies of South Texas. The geography is defined by a complex network of ancient distributary channels known as resacas, including Resaca de los Cuates and Resaca de las Antonias, which wind through the region's agricultural tracts. These water features, alongside the Tule Lake Bed and Dana-Tule Reservoir 2, illustrate a landscape heavily modified for water management and irrigation.
