Infographic explaining the hierarchy of the United States hydrologic unit system. Originally a four-tier system divided into regions, sub-regions, accounting units, and cataloging units, each unit was assigned a unique Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC). As first implemented the system had 21 regions, 221 subregions, 378 accounting units, and 2,264 ...

The South Coast Hydrologic Subregion is composed of three third-level hydrological units. The federally-defined Southern California Coastal water resource subregion equates roughly with the state-designated South Coast hydrologic region.

This category is for water resource subregions, second-level units of the United States hydrologic unit system, as defined by the USGS. Although focused in the United States , some subregions include parts of Canada and Mexico .
The South Atlantic–Gulf water resource region is one of 21 major geographic areas, or regions, in the first level of classification used by the United States Geological Survey to divide and subdivide the United States into successively smaller hydrologic units. These geographic areas contain either the drainage area of a major river, or the ...
This region includes the drainage within the United States of the Lake of the Woods and the Rainy, Red, and Souris River Basins that ultimately discharges into Lake Winnipeg and Hudson Bay. Includes parts of Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota. [3] The Souris–Red–Rainy Region, with its 3 4-digit subregion hydrologic unit boundaries.
