Wieczorek, M.E., Jackson, S.E., and Schwarz, G.E., 2018, Select Attributes for NHDPlus Version 2.1 Reach Catchments and Modified Network Routed Upstream Watersheds for the Conterminous United States (ver. 4.0, August 2023): U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/F7765D7V.

Summary

This tabular data set represents mean saturation overland flow as a percent of streamflow compiled for two spatial components of the NHDPlus version 2 data suite (NHDPlusv2) for the conterminous United States; 1) individual reach catchments and 2) reach catchments accumulated upstream through the river network. This dataset can be linked to the NHDPlus version 2 data suite by the unique identifier COMID. The source data is "Saturation overland flow estimated by TOPMODEL for the conterminous United States" produced by the United States Geological Survey (Wolock, 2003). Units are percent of total stream flow. Reach catchment information characterizes data at the local scale. Reach catchments accumulated upstream through the river network [...]

Purpose

This data set was created by the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) National Water-Quality Assessment Project (NAWQA) which is part of the USGS National Water Quality Program (NWQP). This effort was undertaken to estimate the mean saturation overland flow as a percent of streamflow for NHDPlusV2 flowline catchments and upstream river networks to support statistical analysis, map display, and model parameterization.
