This data set presents attributes of floodplain ecosystem characteristics including floodplain soil denitrification, floodplain soil biogeochemistry, floodplain vegetation, floodplain sedimentation, floodplain and channel morphometry, stream discharge and water quality, floodplain climate, floodplain physiographic region, and catchment land cover. Attributes are associated with 18 floodplains of the Chesapeake Bay watershed. For many of these attributes, mean values are summaries of multiple measurements made within each floodplain site.

Input predictor variables and output predictions from statistical modeling of floodplains, streambanks, and streambeds for each NHDPlusV2 stream reach in the Chesapeake Bay and Delaware River watersheds of the U.S. Mid-Atlantic. Random Forest statistical models using either 1) characteristics of upstream drainage area, or 2) characteristics of upstream drainage area (Wieczorek et al. 2018, https://doi.org/10.5066/f7765d7v) and reach geomorphometry (Hopkins et al. 2020, https://doi.org/10.5066/P9RQJPT1), were used to explain and predict spatial variation in measured floodplain and streambank flux of sediment, fine sediment, sediment-C, sediment-N, and sediment-P and rates of geomorphic change, and streambed sediment...
Hydrologically conditioned digital elevation model (DEM) generated from lidar data clipped to the Difficult Run watershed with a 500-m buffer in ArcGIS 10.3.1 (ESRI, Redlands, CA). The DEM was hydrologically corrected by breaching through pits with no downslope neighboring cells to force surface flow to continuously move downslope using Whitebox Geospatial Analysis Tools (Lindsay and Dhun 2015, Lindsay 2016). Pits that were not properly breached were manually adjusted using elevation information from the DEM and aerial imagery to locate culverts under roadways.
