This is a list of rivers in the continental United States by average discharge (streamflow) in cubic feet per second. All rivers with average discharge more than 15,000 cubic feet per second are listed. Estimates are approximate, because data are variable with time period measured and also because many rivers lack a gauging station near their point of outflow.
For most rivers, different sources provide conflicting information on the length of a river system. The information in different sources is between parentheses. This list is incomplete ; you can help by adding missing items .
This article lists rivers by their average discharge measured in descending order of their water flow rate. Here, only those rivers whose discharge is more than 2,000 m 3 /s (71,000 cu ft/s) are shown. It can be thought of as a list of the biggest rivers on Earth, measured by a specific metric.
This is a list of largest reservoirs in the United States, including all artificial lakes with a capacity greater than or equal to 1,000,000 acre-feet (1.2 km 3 ).
