Results from the literature review meta-analysis for the Chesapeake stressor identification project

This dataset includes information compiled for the literature review meta-analysis portion for the Chesapeake Bay Stressor Identification Project. The dataset includes basic identifying information regarding the publication (last name of the first author, year published, study type, and number of observational units included in the study), the response metric for which results were reported, and the major source or driver that was the focus of the study. The dataset denotes for each stressor category whether a stressor was measured and whether the study’s analysis found it to be an important factor influencing the response metric. The results are reported for both coarse and fine stressor levels, since two stressor...

Multi-stressor literature summary information for Chesapeake Bay stressor identification project

This dataset includes summary information on the reports/studies compiled for the literature review portion of the Chesapeake Bay stressor identification project. This dataset includes basic identifying information regarding the report (name of the report, last name of the first author, year published, persistent link to the report, etc.). It also lists the geographic location of the study (U.S. states or countries for those outside the U.S.), the type of field study, the major source or driver that was the focus of the study, and which in-stream stressors were measured. Finally, the dataset includes a decision code to denote whether the study/report results were included in this project’s analysis or not. If not,...

Data from the Assessment, Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Tracking and Implementation System (ATTAINS) for evaluating multiple stressors affecting Chesapeake Bay watershed rivers and streams

This data set compiles regulatory information about river and stream impairments within the Chesapeake Bay watershed as part of a Chesapeake Bay watershed multi-stressor meta-analysis project. Data are contained in a single combined and name-harmonized dataset originating from a snapshot of the Environmental Protection Agency's Assessment and Total Maximum Daily Load Tracking and Implementation System (ATTAINS) obtained in Spring of 2020. These data were clipped to only waterbodies contained in the Chesapeake Bay watershed and were designated to be free-flowing (e.g., rivers and streams). This compiled dataset contains information on a waterbody's designated uses, parameter impairments, and potential sources of...
