Description
We develop a new map of the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) production rate (\(P_r\)) over the contiguous United States. This map is derived by combining the USGS riverine DOC observations, the HWSD v1.2 top layer (0-30cm) soil organic carbon data, the watershed characteristics from two existing datasets (medium-resolution NHDplus and ScienceBase), and state-of-the-art machine learning techniques.
