Summary

This tabular data set represents the estimated percent area of subsurface tile drainage extent from the early 1990's 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 are "Estimates of subsurface tile drainage extent for the conterminous United States, early 1990s" produced by the United States Geological Survey Nakagaki, 2016). Units are percent of catchment. Reach catchment information characterizes data at the local scale. Reach catchments accumulated [...]

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 percent area of subsurface drainage on agricultural land for the year 1992 for NHDPlusV2 flowline catchments and upstream river networks to support statistical analysis, map display, and model parameterization.
