This data set presents ecosystem geomorphic and soil attributes, sediment and nutrient loading rates, and rates of nutrient biogeochemistry processes, including denitrification and N and P mineralization, in floodplains of urban restored streams. The restored streams were located in the Charlotte, North Carolina, metropolitan area and were studied from 2012-2013.

This dataset is a categorical mapping of estimated mean building heights, by Census block group, in shapefile format for the conterminous United States. The data were derived from the NASA Shuttle Radar Topography Mission, which collected “first return” (top of canopy and buildings) radar data at 30-m resolution in February, 2000 aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavor. These data were processed here to estimate building heights nationally, and then aggregated to block group boundaries. The block groups were then categorized into six classes, ranging from “Low” to “Very High”, based on the mean and standard deviation breakpoints of the data. The data were evaluated in several ways, to include comparing them to a reference...
