Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Watch Florence move through the Carolinas in this data visualization and see USGS streamgage measurements spike as the storm’s extreme rainfall leads to intense flooding. USGS streamgages provide critical information during storms to flood forecasters and emergency managers as they make decisions that contributes to protecting lives and property. Understanding river levels and locations of flooding can make a huge difference in these dangerous storms. The water footprint visualization shows patterns of precipitation and river discharge of 18 USGS streamgages greatly impacted by Florence.
Deutsch: Die Grafik visualisiert, wie Florence durch die beiden Carolina-Staate zieht und die vom USGS betriebenen Pegel Höchststände erreichen, weil der extreme Niederschlag des Sturms zu massiven Überschwemmungen führt. Die Pegel des USGS versorgen Hydrologen und Notfallmanager mit zeitkritischen Informationen, um diesen bei Entschiedungen zu helfen, de zum Schutze von Leben und Eigentum dienen. Das Verständnis der Wasserstände den Ort möglicher Überschwemungen kann einen großen Unterschied bereiten. Diese Visualisierung zeigt Niederschlagsmuster und Abflussmengen von 18 Pegeln des USGS, die sehr stark auf Florence reagierten. |
