Median Agriculture, Pasture, and Barren Cover Management Factors for USDA Crop Management Zones

Metadata Updated: November 12, 2020

This data set provides median cover management factors (C-Factor) for agriculture, pasture, and barren land cover classes for each USDA Crop Management Zone. The C-Factors were calculated based on a Normalized Difference Vegetation Index. MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) NDVI values were obtained at 250 m resolution for 16-day intervals between 2000-2014 to calculate a mean annual NDVI. The data in this file correspond To Table 2 in the associated journal article.

This dataset is associated with the following publication: Woznicki, S., P. Cada, J. Wickham, M. Schmidt, J. Baynes, M. Mehaffey, and A. Neale. Sediment retention by natural landscapes in the conterminous United States. SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT. Elsevier BV, AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS, 745: 140972, (2020).
