Summary
This spatial data set was created by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to represent the extent of soils with low phosphorus retention potential in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States (Hydro Region 17; Major River Basin 7 (MRB7)).
This data set was intended to represent spatially explicit landscape characteristics in the application of the SPARROW (SPAtially Referenced Regressions On Watershed attributes) model to assess total nitrogen and total phosphorus conditions in surface water in Major River Basin 7 (MRB7) using the National Hydrography Dataset as a hydrologic framework.
