Scientific paper

The purpose of this article is to (1) draw attention to the lack of contact between researchers in hydrology and water resources in the two Americas, North and South; (2) invite views about what can, or should, be done about it; and (3) invite suggestions about how to improve contacts not only among hydrologists, but also among geophysicists in the two subcontinents generally. South America provides a rich source of material for papers published in AGU journals. As an illustration, searches of AGU journal abstracts from 1988 to the present using AGU-EASI (Earth and Space Index) with the keyword "Amazon" registered 244 hits, of which 138 were in JGR-Atmospheres and 37 were in Geophysical Research Letters. By contrast, the keyword "Mississippi" registered 132 hits, with 43 and 37 in the two journals cited.
