Attributes for NHDPlus version 2.1 catchments and modified routing of upstream watersheds for the conterminous United States: estimated fresh-water withdrawal, 2010
Description
This metadata record documents two comma separated text files of average daily fresh-water withdrawal amounts by NHDPlus v2.1 catchment (COMID) within the conterminous United States for calendar year 2010. County-level reported estimated use of water are specifically reported as groundwater and surface water and are allotted to catchments by a sum of the catchment based on evenly distributing the county total across the number of county land-area pixels. All values are reported as gallons per day.
Source county-level data were acquired from Estimated use of water in the United States in 2010 (Maupin and others, 2014; available at https://dx.doi.org/10.3133/cir1405). These datasets can be linked to the NHDPlus version 2.1 data suite by the unique identifier COMID (or comid).
