Resource Abstract:
- description: This shapefile contains landscape factors representing human disturbances summarized to local and network catchments
of river reaches for the state of Kansas. This dataset is the result of clipping the feature class 'NFHAP 2010 HCI Scores
and Human Disturbance Data for the Conterminous United States linked to NHDPLUSV1.gdb' to the state boundary of Kansas.
Landscape factors include land uses, population density, roads, dams, mines, and point-source pollution sites. The source
datasets that were compiled and attributed to catchments were identified as being: (1) meaningful for assessing fish habitat;
(2) consistent across the entire study area in the way that they were assembled; (3) representative of conditions in the past
10 years, and (4) of sufficient spatial resolution that they could be used to make valid comparisons among local catchment
units. In this data set, these variables are linked to the catchments of the National Hydrography Dataset Plus Version 1 (NHDPlusV1)
using the COMID identifier. They can also be linked to the reaches of the NHDPlusV1 using the COMID identifier. Catchment
attributes are available for both local catchments (defined as the land area draining directly to a reach; attributes begin
with "L_" prefix) and network catchments (defined by all upstream contributing catchments to the reach's outlet,
including the reach's own local catchment; attributes begin with "N_" prefix). This shapefile also includes
habitat condition scores created based on responsiveness of biological metrics to anthropogenic landscape disturbances throughout
ecoregions. Separate scores were created by considering disturbances within local catchments, network catchments, and a cumulative
score that accounted for the most limiting disturbance operating on a given biological metric in either local or network catchments.
This assessment only scored reaches representing streams and rivers (see the process section for more details). Please use
