The GIS and statistical \nanalyses were applied to land-surface form, geologic texture (permeability of \nthe soil and bedrock), and climate variables that describe the physical and \nclimatic setting of 43,931 small (roughly 200 square kilometers) watersheds \nin the United States. The analyses then grouped the watersheds into 20 \nnoncontiguous regions (the HLRs) on the basis of similarities in land-surface \nform, geologic texture, and climate characteristics.\n\t\t\nThis hydrologic landscape regions dataset contains for each of the 43,931 \nwatersheds the (1) watershed identification number, (2) land-surface form, \ngeologic texture, and climate characteristics for each watershed, and (3) \nhydrologic landscape region number for each watershed.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9UIFPKW", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.b8b21593-8b79-48d8-aeab-e704f78ea2c6.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_b8b21593-8b79-48d8-aeab-e704f78ea2c6", "keyword": ["Hydrologic landscapes", "USGS:b8b21593-8b79-48d8-aeab-e704f78ea2c6", "environment", "geoscientificInformation", "inlandWaters"], "modified": "2020-11-17T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-180, 25, -60, 75", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Hydrologic landscape regions of the United States"}
