Bazinul și sub-bazinele fluviului Mississippi

Mississippi [ˌmɪsɪˈsɪpɪ] (în engleză Mississippi River) este un fluviu din America de Nord (SUA) cu o lungime de 3.778 km. Mississippi izvorăște din Lacul Itasca în partea de nord a statului Minnesota. Se unește cu afluenții săi principali Missouri și Meramac lângă orașul St. Louis, Missouri, iar cu Ohio în statul Illinois. În afară de regiunea Marilor Lacuri fluviul asigură cu apă întregul ținut dintre Munții Stâncoși în vest și Munții Apalași în est.

Fluviul Mississippi curge prin zece state nord americane Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi și Louisiana, înainte de vărsarea sa printr-o deltă largă, la circa 160 km în sudul orașului New Orleans în Golful Mexic.
