We’re the first to document the full life cycle and impacts of a flood on both land and ocean. Using satellite data, we traced the flood’s chronology — starting with rains that fell weeks before the flood and ending with an unusually shaped plume of freshwater that lingered in the Gulf of Mexico months later.
