CONUS's Landsat-based Estimation and Assessment of Riverine TP (CLEAR-TP)

CONUS Landsat-based Estimation and Assessment of Riverine TP (CLEAR-TP) is the first database providing Landsat-based estimates of total phosphorus (TP) concentrations across rivers in the contiguous United States, comprising over 16 million measurements (1984–2018) mapped to the modified NHDPlusV2 network.

The database was generated using Landsat surface water reflectance data from the RiverSR database, combined with a remote sensing–driven machine learning model.
