Camden, Rockport, Rockland, and portions of Owls Head (Maine) sewage no-discharge zone, 2010, EPA HQ OWOW

This dataset details No Discharge Zones (NDZ) for Camden, Rockport, Rockland, and portions of Owls Head, ME. Boaters may not discharge waste into these areas. Boundaries were determined mostly by Federal Register Environmental Documents in coordination with EPA Region 1 Office of Ecosystem Protection (OEP) staff.

Modeled change in the average Feddema Moisture Index (multiplied by 1000) between 1971-1980 and the 1971-2000 Normal period.

Originators: US Environmental Protection Agency Publisher: US EPA Office of Research & Development (ORD) - National Health and Environmental Effects Research Laboratory (NHEERL) Publication place: Corvallis, OR Publication date: Time Period of Data: 1900-2010; Projected data for 2041-2070. Data location: GeoPlatform ("https://www.geoplatform.gov/") and EPA Environmental Dataset Gateway (https://edg.epa.gov/). Abstract: We apply the hydrologic landscapes (HL) concept to assess the hydrologic vulnerability of the western United States (U.S.) to projected climate conditions. Our goal is to understand the potential impacts for stakeholder-defined interests across large geographic areas. The basic assumption of the HL approach is that catchments that share similar physical and climatic characteristics are expected to have similar hydrologic characteristics. We map climate vulnerability by integrating the HL approach into a retrospective analysis of historical data to assess variability in future climate projections and hydrology, which includes temperature, precipitation, potential evapotranspiration, snow accumulation, climatic moisture, surplus water, and seasonality of water surplus. Projections that are not within two-standard deviations of the historical decadal average contribute to the vulnerability index for each metric. The resulting vulnerability maps show that temperature and potential evapotranspiration are consistently projected to have high vulnerability indices for the western U.S. Precipitation vulnerability is not as spatially-uniform as temperature. The highest elevation areas with snow are projected to experience significant changes in snow accumulation. The seasonality vulnerability map shows that specific mountainous areas in the West are most prone to changes in seasonality, whereas many transitional terrains are moderately susceptible. This paper illustrates how the HL approach can help assess climatic and hydrologic vulnerability across large spatial scales. By combining the HL concept and climate vulnerability analyses, we provide a planning approach that could allow resource managers to consider how future climate conditions may impact important economic and conservation resources. Purpose: These data were created in support of the US EPA’s ACE CIVA 2.3, Task Project (QAPP: E-WED-0030854). However, these climate data and hydrologic landscape summaries should have broad applicability for hydrological, geomorphic, or ecological modeling, management, and restoration.  This raster contains the modeled change in the average Feddema Moisture Index over 1971-1980 relative to the 1971-2000 Normal period.

1:6000 Scale (6K) Quadrangles developed by USEPA to Support Reconnaissance, and Tactical and Strategic Planning for Emergency Responses and Homeland Security Events (Region 10 Extract)

Reference quads for emergency response reconnaissance developed for use by the US Environmental Protection Agency. Grid cells are based on densification of the USGS Quarterquad (1:12,000 scale or 12K) grids for the continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico and are roughly equivalent to 1:6000 scale (6K) quadrangles approximately 2 miles long on each side. Note: This file is a regional subset that has been extracted from a national file 6K quad file. Each regional extract includes a 20 mile buffer of tiles around each EPA Region. To access the national layer (size is greater than 80MB), go to https://edg.epa.gov/data/Public/OLEM/OLEM-OEM/6kquads_epa.zip.

Global Non-Floodplain Wetlands_Australia

This raster GIS dataset contains 30 meter cells depicting non-floodplain wetlands in a hydrobasin. This base dataset is a combination of three globally-available datasets, creating a new dataset that is inclusive of finer-resolution data, while accounting for a wide range of wetland sizes. 
The three source datasets are:
 1) CW-WTD 500-m dataset resampled to 30 m. – Wetland dataset built from a composite wetland-water table depth (Tootchi 2019); 
 2) CCI (Climate Change Initiative) data resampled from 300 m to 30 m – CCI defined wetlands as “…mixed classes of flooded areas with tree covers, shrubs, or herbaceous covers plus inland water bodies;” and
 3) Global Surface Water (GSW)  30-m (Pekel et al. 2016) – A pixel was considered a wetland if it had at least one inundation event over a 32-year range.

A 1-km buffer was applied to the HydroBASINS (Lehner and Grill 2013) coastline area and any wetland partially or completely overlain by the 1-km buffer was removed from analysis. In addition, to avoid including large lakes in  the data, we also applied a mask using HydroLAKES and removed lake systems ≥10 ha (Messager et al. 2016).

The dataset was then overlain by the GFPlain90 floodplain data (resampled to 30 meters) and wetlands overlain by the floodplain were removed.
