The ECB-WQ database is comprised of hydrology and water quality data from three privately owned farms in Northwest Ohio and Northeast Indiana (USA). Specifically, the dataset includes information on site characteristics (drainage area, soil type), field management (fertilizer application, planting rate, yield), and daily discharge and measured nutrient concentrations from surface and subsurface tile drainage outlets.

Intended use

The data can be used to provide valuable information on agriculture’s role in hydrology and water quality as well as to understand the dominant pathways of transport and help inform practices that can be adopted to reduce agriculture’s environmental footprint.

Use limitations

Use of these datasets should be used to compare typical edge-of-field water quality and quantity data sets across cropping systems and sites throughout the United States.Use of the data should follow the LTAR Data Sharing Principles and Guidelines, which can be found at: https://ltar.ars.usda.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/LTAR_DataSharing_PrincGuide_v1_0.pdf.
