Slot: slope aspect (slope_aspect)

The direction a slope faces. While looking down a slope use a compass to record the direction you are facing (direction or degrees); e.g., nw or 315 degrees. This measure provides an indication of sun and wind exposure that will influence soil temperature and evapotranspiration
