Modeled Land Use and Land Cover, 1980-2100

Metadata Updated: November 12, 2025

This tabular data set contains information on historic and projected land-use/land-cover, compiled for two spatial components of the NHDPlus version 2.1 data suite (NHDPlusv2) for select regions of the conterminous United States; 1) individual reach catchments and 2) reach catchments accumulated upstream through the river network. This dataset can be linked to the NHDPlus version 2.1 data suite by the unique identifier COMID. The source data is from the Modeled historic and projected land use and land cover for the conterminous United States produced by Terry Sohl and others (2014, 2018). The data provided here contains information for the years, 1980 through 2100, compiled as described above. The units are in percentages. Reach catchment information characterizes data at the local scale. Reach catchments accumulated upstream through the river network characterizes cumulative upstream conditions. Network-accumulated values were computed using the xstrm python software package (Wieferich and others, 2021).
