Water Resources of MississippiState and National Streamflow Conditions Welcome to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Web page for the water resources of Mississippi. The USGS provides maps, reports and information to help others meet their needs to manage, develop, and protect America's water, energy, mineral, and land resources. We help find natural resources needed to build tomorrow, and supply scientific understanding needed to help minimize or mitigate the effects of natural hazards and environmental damage caused by human activities. The results of our efforts touch the daily lives of almost every American.
Steele Bayou Monitoring Update
USGS Mississippi Data Highlights2010 Mississippi Water Data Report Now AvailableThe 2010 USGS Water Data Report is now available online and improves on the previous online reports with a new interactive feature designed to make site data retrieval easier and more convenient. The new report includes a national map interface that can be used to identify an area of interest, locate sites where water data were collected for Water Year 2010, and access most of that data. The annual Water Data Report provides a snapshot of water conditions for a given year. Access the Water Data Report using a text ( ) or map ( ) interface. National Water Information System: MapperThe new NWIS Mapper provides an interactive map interface to all USGS water data (historical and current). (Note: To access data, zoom in on the map to level 11 or greater to make the individual sites clickable.) Instantaneous Data Archive (IDA)The Instantaneous Data Archive makes available as much intra-day streamflow data and historical instantaneous data continuous (measurements from every 5 to every 60 minutes), as possible, often several years' worth of data. Informative Tools & LinksUSGS StreaMail USGS StreaMail is a system for accessing real-time river stage and streamflow from hand-held wireless devices, such as cell phones
and Blackberries. All you have to do is send an email or text message to "streamail@usgs.gov" and use a USGS station number in the
"Subject" line. In a few minutes you'll get back an email/text message with the most recent stage and streamflow.
USGS WaterAlert Now you can receive instant, customized updates about water conditions by subscribing to WaterAlert, a new service from
the U.S. Geological Survey. WaterAlert allows users to receive updates about river flows, groundwater levels, water temperatures,
rainfall, and water quality at more than 9,500 sites where USGS collects real-time water information. The Mississippi Water Science
Center collects real-time water information at more than 130 sites throughout Mississippi and makes that data available to the public
through WaterAlert.
