    "description": "LakeCat currently contains over 300 metrics that include local catchment (Cat), watershed (Ws), and special metrics. See Geospatial Framework and Terms in the ReadMe for definitions of the terms ‘catchment’ and ‘watershed’ as used with the LakeCat Dataset. An additional metric, inStreamCat, indicates whether the variable was pulled from the StreamCat Dataset or calculated with a geospatial framework that was developed for LakeCat.

These metrics are available for 378,088 lakes and their associated catchments across the conterminous US. LakeCat metrics represent both natural (e.g., soils and geology) and anthropogenic (e.g, urban areas and agriculture) landscape information.",

    "description": "This dataset represents the characterization of global forest extent and change by year from 2001 through 2013 within individual local and accumulated upstream catchments for NHDPlusV2 Waterbodies based on the Global Forest Change 2000, 2013, 2013. Catchment boundaries in LakeCat are defined in one of two ways, on-network or off-network. The on-network catchment boundaries follow the catchments provided in the NHDPlusV2 and the metrics for these lakes mirror metrics from StreamCat, but will substitute the COMID of the NHDWaterbody for that of the NHDFlowline. The off-network catchment framework uses the NHDPlusV2 flow direction rasters to define non-overlapping lake-catchment boundaries and then links them through an off-network flow table. These data are based on global tree cover loss for the period from 2001 to 2013 at a spatial resolution of 30m. The analysis used to create the landscape layer is based on Landsat data. Forest loss was defined as a stand-replacement disturbance or the complete removal of tree cover canopy at the Landsat pixel scale. This landscape layer is a disaggregation of total forest loss to annual time scales. Encoded as either 0 (no loss) or else a value in the range 1, 201313, representing loss detected primarily in the year 2001, 2013, 2013, respectively. The forest loss by year characteristics (%) were summarized to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type.",
