Attributes for MRB_E2RF1 Catchments by Major River Basins in the Conterminous United States: Hydrologic Landscape Regions
This tabular data set represents the area of Hydrologic Landscape Regions (HLR) compiled for every
MRB_E2RF1 catchment of the Major River Basins (MRBs, Crawford and others, 2006). The source
data set is a 100-meter version of Hydrologic Landscape Regions of the United States (Wolock, 2003).
HLR groups watersheds on the basis of similarities in land-surface form, geologic texture, and climate
characteristics.
The MRB_E2RF1 catchments are based on a modified version of the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency's (USEPA) ERF1_2 and include enhancements to support national and regional-scale
surface-water quality modeling (Nolan and others, 2002; Brakebill and others, 2011).
Data were compiled for every MRB_E2RF1 catchment for the conterminous United States
covering New England and Mid-Atlantic (MRB1), South Atlantic-Gulf and Tennessee (MRB2),
the Great Lakes, Ohio, Upper Mississippi, and Souris-Red-Rainy (MRB3), the Missouri (MRB4),
the Lower Mississippi, Arkansas-White-Red, and Texas-Gulf (MRB5), the Rio Grande, Colorado,
and the Great basin (MRB6), the Pacific Northwest (MRB7) river basins, and California (MRB8).
