The Eastern Continental Divide, Eastern Divide or Appalachian Divide is a hydrographic divide in eastern North America that separates the easterly Atlantic Seaboard watershed from the westerly Gulf of Mexico watershed. The divide nearly spans the United States from south of Lake Ontario through the Florida peninsula, and consists of raised terrain including the Appalachian Mountains to the north, the southern Piedmont Plateau and lowland ridges in the Atlantic Coastal Plain to the south. Water including rainfall and snowfall, lakes, streams and rivers on the eastern/southern side of the divide drains to the Atlantic Ocean; water on the western/northern side of the divide drains to the Gulf of Mexico. The ECD is one of six continental hydrographic divides of North America which define sever

  • Die Östliche Kontinentale Wasserscheide (Eastern Continental Divide) befindet sich im Osten Nordamerikas. Sie trennt die Einzugsgebiete der Flüsse, welche in den Nordatlantik und in den Golf von Mexiko fließen. Direkt in den Atlantik münden eher kleinere Flüsse wie der Hudson River, der Potomac River oder der Savannah River, die in den Golf von Mexiko entwässernden Flüssen gehören meist zum Einzugsgebiet des Mississippi Rivers. Als größte Stadt liegt Atlanta auf der Östlichen Kontinentalen Wasserscheide. (de)

  • La ligne continentale orientale de partage des eaux ou ligne Est de partage des eaux ou ligne de partage des eaux des Appalaches (abv. ECD) est une ligne de partage des eaux dans l'est de l'Amérique du Nord qui sépare le bassin versant de la côte Est de l' Atlantique du bassin versant de l'ouest du golfe du Mexique . La ligne de partage s'étend presque aux États-Unis du sud du lac Ontario à la péninsule de Floride et se compose de terrains surélevés comprenant les Appalaches au nord, le sud du plateau du Piémont et les crêtes de plaine de la Plaine côtière atlantique au sud. L'eau, y compris les précipitations et les chutes de neige, les lacs, les ruisseaux et les rivières du côté est / sud de la ligne de partage des eaux s'écoule vers l'océan Atlantique; l'eau du côté ouest / nord de la l (fr)
