    “... Several things stand out:
    1) the massive flow of the mighty Mississippi and Columbia River systems
    2) the paucity of major rivers in the western US, especially the southwestern US, where the only major rivers are the seriously over-tapped Colorado and Rio Grande Rivers
    3) the local importance of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Rivers in California, which serve the state’s cities and agricultural regions…”

  6. Small Waterbodies Of Large Conservation Concern - Towards An Integrated Approach To More Accurately Measuring Surface Water Dynamics
    --
    doi.org/10.1016/j.ecolind.2025 <-- shared paper
    --
    “HIGHLIGHTS
    • Hydrologic models were used to assess remotely sensed surface water estimates.
    • The accuracy of satellite surface water estimates diminished for waterbodies < 2 ha.
    • Vegetation reduces accuracy of surface water detection, especially during wet years..."
