Published February 13, 2007
Zambia’s Chambeshi River had been transformed from a barely visible line to a broad lake more than 20 kilometers wide on February 6, 2007. Many rivers in southern Africa, including the Zambezi, pushed over their banks in early 2007 under the onslaught of an exceptionally early and heavy rainy season.

Madre de Dios Watershed
2000 x 2000 11 MB - GeoTIFF
In 2004, a small group of freshwater conservation biologists at World Wildlife Fund who were studying the Madre de Dios River in the southwestern Amazon found a creative way to locate rivers. The team used high-resolution topographic maps based on radar data collected by the Space Shuttle Endeavour in 2000 to map how water would flow across the landscape. This image shows the result of their efforts, including elevation, river channels, and watershed boundaries.
