Santa Ana River Watershed Research Paper

The Santa Ana River Watershed is the largest river in Southern California. The river is 210.47 square miles. The river begins in the San Bernardino Mountains and goes down to Huntington Beach. The Santa Ana River Watershed has parts of Anaheim, Brea, Placentia, Yorba Linda, Villa Park, Orange and Huntington Beach. When you see the Santa Ana River Watershed you can see the culture and the nature in it. It begins in the San Bernardino Mountains because that is how we get rid of the water when the snow melts. When the snow melts it goes down the Santa Ana River Watershed to Huntington Beach. Also, when the water goes down the mountains it takes rocks from the mountains and when it reaches the the beach it has become into sand. It’s shape is due
to the climate here in Southern California.
