This dataset represents the road density within individual local and accumulated upstream catchments for NHDPlusV2 Waterbodies. Catchment boundaries in LakeCat are defined in one of two ways, on-network or off-network. The on-network catchment boundaries follow the catchments provided in the NHDPlusV2 and the metrics for these lakes mirror metrics from StreamCat, but will substitute the COMID of the NHDWaterbody for that of the NHDFlowline. The off-network catchment framework uses the NHDPlusV2 flow direction rasters to define non-overlapping lake-catchment boundaries and then links them through an off-network flow table. This data set is derived from TIGER/Line Files of roads in the conterminous United States. Road density describes how many kilometers of road exist in a square kilometer. A raster was produced using the ArcGIS Line Density Tool to form the landscape layer for analysis. The (kilometer of road/square kilometer) 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 density of road and stream crossings within individual local and accumulated upstream catchments for NHDPlusV2 Waterbodies. Catchment boundaries in LakeCat are defined in one of two ways, on-network or off-network. The on-network catchment boundaries follow the catchments provided in the NHDPlusV2 and the metrics for these lakes mirror metrics from StreamCat, but will substitute the COMID of the NHDWaterbody for that of the NHDFlowline. The off-network catchment framework uses the NHDPlusV2 flow direction rasters to define non-overlapping lake-catchment boundaries and then links them through an off-network flow table. The landscape layer (raster) was developed by James Falcone of the USGS. US Census TIGER 2000 line files of roads and the NHDPlusV1 line files of all streams were converted to 30-meter grids where the presence of a street or stream was a 1 and everything else a 0. These were intersected and anything that was a 1 in both grids is the result. The density of road and stream crossings (crossings / square kilometer) were summarized to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type.

This dataset represents the elevation values within individual local and accumulated upstream catchments for NHDPlusV2 Waterbodies based on the National Elevation Dataset. Catchment boundaries in LakeCat are defined in one of two ways, on-network or off-network. The on-network catchment boundaries follow the catchments provided in the NHDPlusV2 and the metrics for these lakes mirror metrics from StreamCat, but will substitute the COMID of the NHDWaterbody for that of the NHDFlowline. The off-network catchment framework uses the NHDPlusV2 flow direction rasters to define non-overlapping lake-catchment boundaries and then links them through an off-network flow table. NHDPlusV2 records NED snapshot dates as follows: August 2010 - VPU04 February 2011 - VPUs 05, 06 June 2011 - VPU 17 August 2011 - VPUs 07, 10L, 10U, 11, 18 December 2011 - VPUs 01, 02, 03N, 03S, 03W, 08, 09, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 The elevation characteristics were summarized to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type.

This dataset represents total fresh surface-water withdrawals in agricultural land (L/day) within individual, local NHDPlusV2 catchments and upstream, contributing watersheds as described in DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.137661

This dataset represents the soil characteristics within individual local and accumulated upstream catchments for NHDPlusV2 Waterbodies based on the STATSGO landscape rasters. Catchment boundaries in LakeCat are defined in one of two ways, on-network or off-network. The on-network catchment boundaries follow the catchments provided in the NHDPlusV2 and the metrics for these lakes mirror metrics from StreamCat, but will substitute the COMID of the NHDWaterbody for that of the NHDFlowline. The off-network catchment framework uses the NHDPlusV2 flow direction rasters to define non-overlapping lake-catchment boundaries and then links them through an off-network flow table. This data set is derived from the STATSGO landscape rasters for the conterminous USA. Individual rasters (Landscape Layers) of depth to bedrock (rckdep), organic material (om), percent clay (clay), percent sand (sand), permeability (perm), soil erodibility (KFFACT/KFACT), and water table depth (wtdep) were used to calculate soil characteristics for each NHDPlusV2 catchment. The soil characteristics were summarized to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type. The STATSGO data are distributed in two sets, STATSGO_Set1 and STATSGO_Set2, based on common NoData locations in each set of soil GIS layers.

This dataset represents the population and housing unit density within individual local and accumulated upstream catchments for NHDPlusV2 Waterbodies based on the 2010 US Census data (See Supplementary Info for Glossary of Terms). Densities are calculated for every block group and watershed averages are calculated for every local NHDPlusV2 catchment. Catchment boundaries in LakeCat are defined in one of two ways, on-network or off-network. The on-network catchment boundaries follow the catchments provided in the NHDPlusV2 and the metrics for these lakes mirror metrics from StreamCat, but will substitute the COMID of the NHDWaterbody for that of the NHDFlowline. The off-network catchment framework uses the NHDPlusV2 flow direction rasters to define non-overlapping lake-catchment boundaries and then links them through an off-network flow table. This data set is derived from The TIGER/Line Files and related database (.dbf) files for the conterminous USA. It was downloaded as Block Group-Level Census 2010 SF1 Data in File Geodatabase Format (ArcGIS version 10.0). The landscape raster (LR) was produced based on the data compiled from the questions asked of all people and about every housing unit. The (block-group population / block group area) and (block-group housing units / block group area) were summarized by local catchment and by watershed to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type.
