This dataset represents the Index of Watershed Integrity / Index of Catchment Integrity (IWI/ICI) within individual local NHDPlusV2 catchments and upstream, contributing watersheds based on 23 other StreamCat metrics. The Index of Watershed Integrity (IWI) is based on first order approximations of relationships between stressors and six watershed functions: hydrologic regulation, regulation of water chemistry, sediment regulation, hydrologic connectivity, temperature regulation, and habitat provision. Link to paper: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecolind.2017.10.070\\nThe Index of Watershed Integrity / Index of Catchment Integrity (IWI/ICI) were summarized to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type.

This dataset represents water input, measured as km2/cm: Ratio of the total area of irrigated land to precipitation within individual, local NHDPlusV2 catchments and upstream, contributing watersheds.

This dataset represents the base flow index values within individual, local NHDPlusV2 catchments and upstream, contributing watersheds. Attributes of the landscape layer were calculated for every local NHDPlusV2 catchment and accumulated to provide watershed-level metrics. The base-flow index (BFI) grid for the conterminous United States was developed to estimate (1) BFI values for ungaged streams, and (2) ground-water recharge throughout the conterminous United States (see Source_Information). Estimates of BFI values at ungaged streams and BFI-based ground-water recharge estimates are useful for interpreting relations between land use and water quality in surface and ground water. The BFI (%) was summarized by local catchment and by watershed to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type.

This dataset represents the estimated surface water runoff within individual, local NHDPlusV2 catchments and upstream, contributing watersheds. Attributes of the landscape layer were calculated for every local NHDPlusV2 catchment and then accumulated to provide watershed-level metrics.(see Data Sources for links to NHDPlusV2 data and metadata) The landscape layer (raster) was developed with a water-balance model developed by Dave Wolock of the USGS and is detailed further in the paper "Independent effects of temperature and precipitation on modeled runoff in the conterminous United States". McCabe and Wolock[2011] Runoff is defined as the flow per unit area delivered to streams and rivers in units of millimeters per month. The runoff estimates were summarized to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type.
