LakeCat
The LakeCat Dataset provides summaries of watershed features for 378,088 lakes within the conterminous USA and provides several hundred watershed-level metrics that summarize both natural (e.g., soils, geology, climate, and land cover) and anthropogenic (e.g., urbanization,
agriculture, and mines) features.
This dataset is associated with the following publication:
Hill, R., M. Weber, R. Debbout, S. Leibowitz, and T. Olsen. The Lake-Catchment (LakeCat) Dataset: Characterizing landscape features for lake basins within the conterminous USA. Freshwater Science. The Society for Freshwater Science, Springfield, IL, 37: 208-221, (2018).
