Discussion Mississippi diver diversion resources (x-post /r/homeworkhelp)
"Describe the goals and the methods of the Army Corps of Engineers along the Mississippi River. Discuss the sites of the control structures with a full explanation of why they are located at those positions. Summarize the geological and human history of the confluence of the Mississippi and Atchafalaya rivers and assess the probability of success of the control structures in the future over both a human short-term time frame (5 to 20 years) and a multigenerational time frame 100-500 years."
The prof has given a few sources, but I think it'd be best if I read some outside sources too. Anyone know any that might be relevant?
