Web Links
In keeping with the theme of Chapter 16, these Web Links are designed to demonstrate just how exciting the discipline of geography is. These sites exemplify the many concepts presented in The Fluvial Processes.
National Water Conditions
USGS site contains a map of current streamflow data that indicates which areas of the United States are above and below normal streamflow.
Realtime (current) River Discharge Data
