Water Quality Corridor Management for Restoration (WQCM-R) Modeling Dataset

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

The dataset was developed to support research intended to develop a spatially-explicit model that prioritizes riparian areas in terms of potential for ecosystem restoration specifically to improve water quality downstream of the riparian area, and ultimately improve drinking water quality. The model was developed and then tested on the Lewisville Lake watershed (north central Texas, just north of Dallas, Texas, USA). The dataset contains environmental data for 90 sub-watersheds that form the overall Lewisville Lake watershed with a corresponding identification map.

Notes

The dataset is in two formats: Microsoft Excel (1 file with two tabs, 812 KB) and comma delimited (1 file, 13 KB). These files contain the same data, but are provided in two formats for user’s convenience. Additionally, a map of the Lewisville Lake watershed with 90 sub-watersheds delineated is embedded in the Microsoft Excel file, and is also provided as a separate pdf file.

Prioritizing riparian corridors for ecosystem restoration in urbanizing watersheds

This article explores restoration, rather than protection, being the basis for developing a watershed level strategy for improving water quality in urbanizing watersheds.This study uses a geographical information system (GIS) approach that utilizes riparian characteristics extracted from 40-meter wide corridors centered on streams and rivers. The model was applied to 90 sub-watersheds in the watershed of an important drinking water reservoir in north central Texas, USA.
