This EnviroAtlas dataset represents the percentage of land area that is classified as forest, forest including woody wetlands, and natural land cover that occurs within 45 meters of streams, rivers, and other hydrologically connected waterbodies within each 12-digit hydrologic unit code (HUC) in the conterminous United States. Land cover is defined using the 2019 National Land Cover Dataset (NLCD). Streams were derived from the NHD (National Hydrography Dataset) High Resolution dataset obtained 4 January 2022. Datasets for other geographies were produced separately; metadata for these related datasets may be found here: Alaska https://enviroatlas.epa.gov/enviroatlas/MetadataFGDC/RiparianLC_AK.xml, Hawaii https://enviroatlas.epa.gov/enviroatlas/MetadataFGDC/RiparianLC_HI.xml, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands https://enviroatlas.epa.gov/enviroatlas/MetadataFGDC/RiparianLC_PRVI.

This EnviroAtlas dataset shows the percent land cover with potentially restorable wetlands on agricultural land for each 12-digit Hydrologic Unit (HUC) watershed in the contiguous U.S. Beginning two centuries ago, many wetlands were turned into farm fields or urban areas, yet wetlands play an important role in removing water pollution, regulating water storage and flows, and providing habitat for wildlife. Wetland restoration could help restore these benefits. Potentially restorable wetlands, as developed for this map, are lands currently in agriculture that naturally accumulate water due to topography and have historically had poorly or very poorly draining soils.

This EnviroAtlas dataset contains Land Cover data by Wetness Index for each Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD) 12-Digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC-12) of the conterminous United States, based on the National Land Cover Database (NLCD) from 2011, the December 30, 2009 Soil Survey Geographic (SSURGO) Database, and the USDA's Cropland Data Layer (CDL) data from 2011. The dataset includes the percentages of each HUC-12 belonging to several land cover groups that are on land with a Wetness Index greater than 550 (WET550).

This EnviroAtlas dataset represents the percentage land area that is classified as agricultural land cover that occurs on slopes above a given threshold for each 12-digit hydrologic unit code (HUC) in the conterminous United States. Agricultural land cover is defined using the EnviroAtlas hybrid Cropland Data Layer (CDL) - 2011 National Land Cover Dataset (NLCD). Percentage slope values were derived from the 1 arc-second National Elevation Dataset (NED). This dataset was produced by the US EPA to support research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas.

This EnviroAtlas dataset contains data on Agricultural Land Coverage on Hydric Soils for each Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD) 12-Digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC-12) of the conterminous United States that is considered to be both hydric and agricultural based on the December 30, 2009 Natural Resources Conservation Service Soil Survey Geographic Database (NRCS SSURGO), the 2006 National Land Cover Database (NLCD), and the USDA's 2010 Cropland Data Layer (CDL). Because these data are based on SSURGO map units' percent hydric there are four thresholds used to classify if a particular map unit would be hydric. These thresholds are 20%, 40%, 60% and 80%, where a map unit area that had a value of 42% for the SSURGO hydric measurement (based on the raster dataset named "sum_comppct_r2_hydric") would be considered non-hydric under the 60% threshold but hydric under both the 20% and 40% thresholds. For this dataset, the threshold of 80% is used. This dataset was produced by Tetra Tech, Inc. to support research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas.

This EnviroAtlas dataset estimates the percent urban land for each 12-digit hydrologic unit code (HUC) in the conterminous United States. For the purposes of this map, urban land cover includes a variety of development, such as open spaces, parks, golf courses, single family homes, multifamily housing units, retail, commercial, industrial sites, and associated infrastructure. Urban land cover is not confined to city limits. This dataset was produced by the US EPA to support research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas.
