The
Mokelumne River enters from the east, flows northwest from
Lodi, picks up several tributaries including the
Cosumnes River, then turns south, meandering among several delta sloughs and waterways, ultimately flowing into the San Joaquin River in the center of the delta, northeast of
Antioch.
The "lake-like" body of water near the bottom of the image is
Clifton Court Forebay, where pumps lift water to be sent southward in the California Water Project canal.
Several other open areas in the right half of the image are "islands," many of which have elevations well below sea level. Waterways (in blue) are clearly visible, as are fields and croplands (which appear as
patchwork), and urban areas (especially
Stockton).
