Here, we summarize a variety of physical and \nhydro-geologic characteristics related to each of our watershed sample units, \nwhich may contribute to the potential for sediment and nutrient contribution \nfrom harvest sites to surface waters. These characteristics are best viewed as \nbaseline conditions which could influence potential impacts to water quality in \nthe absence of FMG implementation. These factors range from percent forest cover \nwithin a watershed to soil erosivity, and include slope, concentration potential \nfor runoff, land use, distance to surface hydrology, and a variety of other \nfactors. It is critical to keep in mind that our summaries of the resulting \nmodels tend to average conditions across the entire watershed sample unit, while \ncertain conditions may actually be concentrated along stream corridors, steep \nand narrow valleys, glacial moraine edges, or other physical features present in \nthe watersheds. The series of maps resulting from this analysis shows these \nfactors on a landscape level. Most factors are derived from map layers created \nat a 30 meter resolution (e.g. pixel size on the ground). Hence, our background \nerosivity risk model also describes these factors at the 30 meter scale. \n", "summary": "Baseline Erosivity Risk for Minnesota's Hydro-geologic Landscape", "title": "hyrdo_risk_natural", "tags": [ "erosivity", "risk", "hydro" ], "type": "Map Service", "typeKeywords": [ "Data", "Service", "Map Service", "ArcGIS Server" ], "thumbnail": "thumbnail/thumbnail.png", "url": "", "extent": [ [ -97.2666130257556, 43.438567271023 ], [ -89.3888831804598, 49.4045362249506 ] ], "spatialReference": "NAD_1983_UTM_Zone_15N", "accessInformation": "", "licenseInfo": "" }
