    • Watershed Attributes for Chesapeake Stream Team Field Sites

    Metadata Updated: September 12, 2025

    The Chesapeake Stream Team studied 123 streams from 2021 to 2024 to determine whether conservation practices in agricultural and urban settings have improved downstream nontidal stream health. To isolate effects of conservation practices, scientists must account for other attributes in the greater watershed that may affect measured metrics of stream health. This release includes over 450 attributes summarized across the upstream watershed for each Stream Team site. Separate watersheds were delineated for each main measurement reach (MAIN) and additional reach used for secondary fish sampling (FISH). These data include 11 data files and 1 data dictionary: 0_Data_Dictionary 1_General 2_Animal_Counts 3_Geology 4_Land_Use 5_Climate 6_Soils 7_Hydrologic 8_Topographic 9_Water_Quality_General 10_Water_Quality_CAST 11_Water_Treatment
