   Dec 20, 2021 · When El Niño is underway, surface waters in the central and eastern parts of the tropical Pacific are warmer than average over several months' time, and the warmer water brings higher-than-average sea levels. The region is colder than average during La Niña, and sea levels are lower than average.

   How many watersheds are there in North America?

   • Watersheds of North America are large drainage basins which drain to separate oceans, seas, gulfs, or endorheic basins. There are six generally recognized hydrological continental divides which divide the continent into seven principal drainage basins spanning three oceans (Arctic, Atlantic and Pacific) and one endorheic basin.

   Why is sea level falling around the Gulf of Alaska?

   • Local sea level around the Gulf of Alaska is falling, mostly because loss of glaciers is allowing the land to rise faster than global sea level is rising. Screenshot from Climate.gov/NOAA CO-COPS interactive map of local sea level trends.

   How does a northward flowing current affect sea level?

   • A northward flowing current in the northern hemisphere has to have a west-to-east increase in sea surface height to flow northwards. When the current slows, the sea level height gradient relaxes toward the coast, adding to local sea level.

   Where can I find information about water resources?

   • Source: U.S. Geological Survey The U.S. Geological Survey’s National Water Information System (NWIS) created an interactive tool that maps water resources data at over 1.5 million sites across the country. The search tool allows the user to find sites by street address, location name, site number, state/territory, and watershed region.

   Which states are most affected by floods?

   • The map also shows the likelihood for each decade that sea level rise plus storm surge plus tide will reach a certain threshold. Florida, Louisiana, California, New York and New Jersey have the largest populations in the flood zone. Among those, Florida has the highest population density in harm’s way, Strauss said.
