Landscape alter- ations induce up-to-downstream impacts on river systems; therefore, predicting how infrastructures may alter hydrology required accumulating geospatial information for dendritic stream networks. Additionally, translating these geospatial variables into measures of hydrologic alteration requires ...
; by database (USGS NWIS, EPA STORET_WQX, etc.); and by proximity to stream reach catchments on the National Hydrography Dataset Plus (NHDPlus [McKay et al., 2012; Moore and Dewald, 2016]), a national geospatial surface water network linking ∼2.7 million stream reaches across the ...
The digital elevation model (DEM) at a spatial resolution of 30 m, downloaded from Geospatial Data Cloud website of Computer Network Information Center, Chinese Academy of Sciences (http://www.gscloud.cn/), was used to abstract the elevation data in the study area to assist LULC ...
