Rivers of North America is an important reference for scientists, ecologists, and students studying rivers and their ecosystems. It brings together information from several regional specialists on the major river basins of North America, presented in a large-format, full-color book. The introduction ...

The second longest river flowing through North America is Mississippi. It is 3,374 kilometers long with a width of 11 kilometers at its widest point. Emerging from Lake Itasca in Minnesota, the river flows through nine other states of the US before reaching the end of its journey at the ...
Inset, map of South America, with the extent of the χ map outlined in red. b, Plot of χ versus elevation for the Plicomayo, Bermejo and Juramento river basins. Full sets of dendritic and fan-draining rivers define the black and grey envelopes, respectively; blue and red profiles show ...
Freshwater systems are among the most threatened ecosystems and most of the world’s river basins have been severely altered by human activities1,2. Among them, habitat fragmentation and non-native fish introductions are the most pervasive2. In particular, fish introductions have markedly changed fis...
South America is very rich in river basins, and all the aquatic mammals in continental waters are endemic (Olson et al., 1998). The most important hydrographic systems are the Amazon, the Orinoco, and the Paraná-Uruguay rivers. However, other small river systems are located in cold and ...
The Sanpoil (Nesilextcin, N'Puchle), including the Nespelem and the Colville (Skoylpeli, Kettle Falls Indians), lived in northwestern Washington along the Columbia River from Kettle Falls to the vicinity of Grand Coulee and north of the Columbia in the Sanpoil and Nespelem River basins. ...

and some of their surviving artwork celebrates sodomite lust and violence. The Aztecs engaged in human sacrifice, cannibalism, and a slavery far worse than the Atlantic slave trade. The mound-building Native Americans in the interior river basins of North America also engaged in ritualistic human ...
However, little direct evidence for the pre-LGM configuration and southern extent of the LIS—and its transformation of major river drainages—is preserved in North America. Here we integrate data from the deepest sediment core drilled by the Deep Sea Drilling Program (DSDP) Leg 96 on the ...
