USGS Water Science Centers are located in each state.
Water Resources of Missouri
Welcome to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)
Web page for the water resources of Missouri; this is your direct link
to all kinds of water-resource information. Here you'll find information
on Missouri's rivers and streams. You'll also find information about groundwater,
water quality, and many other topics. The USGS operates the most extensive
satellite network of stream-gaging stations in the state, many of which
form the backbone of flood-warning systems.
The 2011 USGS Water Data Report is now available to provide a snapshot
of water conditions for a given year. The report includes text and
map interfaces that can be used to identify and access an area of interest,
locate sites where water data were collected for various Water Years.
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.
Now you can receive instant, customized updates about water conditions
by subscribing to WaterAlert,
a new service from the U.S. Geological Survey. Whether you are watching
for floods, interested in recreational activities, or concerned about
the quality of water in your well, WaterAlert allows
you to receive daily or hourly updates about current conditions in
rivers, lakes, and groundwater when they match conditions of concern
to you.
