Abstract: | |
The Soil Conservation Service conducts periodic inventories of the nation's soil, water, and related resources. The National Resources Inventory (NRI) provides data on the status, condition, and trends of these resources of nonfederal land in the United States. Data within NRI are organized into 8 categories: soil characteristics and interpretations, land cover, land use, erosion, land treatment, conservation treatment needs, vegetative conditions, and potential for conversion to cropland. The NRI database contains NRI datasets from 1982, 1987, and 1992. Information on how to obtain NRI data is available at the Natural Resources Conservation Service web site. In addition, information and data are available through EPA at http://www.epa.gov/cesssi96/ces/guide/prog(02).htm. |
