Reservoir & scene details

Capacity describes how much a reservoir can hold, not how much water is in it today. The population figure describes the whole regional system.

About this scene

Terrain and the fixed water elevation come from USGS elevation data. View this scene's elevation data.

The USGS reference year belongs to the sampled water point; it does not date the entire terrain. The scene does not show today's water level.

The underwater bed, waves, ripples and light are modeled. They are a visual simulation, not a depth survey or live measurements.
