After over 2 decades, the USGS Water Resources Mission Area revealed a new Water Cycle Diagram during a virtual release party, Stories of the Water Cycle, held on Thursday, October 13th at 6:30 pm ET. The updated, comprehensive diagram depicts how Earth’s water is stored and moves, both naturally and because of human action.

This is an animation showing the changing conditions relative to the historic daily record of USGS streamgages from July 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022. The river conditions shown range from the driest condition seen at a gage (red open circles) to the wettest (blue closed circles). A purple outer ring around a gage indicates it is flooding.
