Statistics

Select the basin by clicking on the map or using the pull-down menu.

This page provides easy access to summary statistics for each of the 195 HUC-12 basins in the study area. Click on a watershed or select it using the pull-down menu, and press the “Go” button to generate statistics for our land cover, riparian cover, and impervious cover analyses.

The three Maps sections (land cover, riparian and impervious) contain maps of these data, and remember you can roll over any watershed and get a pop-up window with statistics for that particular study. For information aggregated by study area, state, or major watershed, go to the Summary Maps and Stats page.
