Abstract:
This data set was designed for statewide evaluation of agrichemical leaching characteristics and associated aquifer sensitivity to contamination. It was created to classify soils and aquifer settings according to predictions of leaching potential. The classifications have not been validated by the results of water quality sampling. In addition, the use of these aquifer sensitivity ratings as predictors of water quality has not been evaluated. This is a statewide Arc/Info data set of soil characteristics relating to nitrate leaching. It was generated to aid in determining aquifer sensitivity to nitrate leaching in Illinois. The source map was digitized at 1:250,000, but was developed from source data mapped at 1:15,000. The publication of this map was at 1:500,000. Nominal scale is 1:250,000. Two statewide data sets were identified as containing information that would be useful for producing aquifer sensitivity maps: a soil association map (and database) and a map of geologic materials to a depth of 50 feet (Stack-unit map). The soil association map and database were used in an interpretive mapping model that generated a map of nitrate leaching classes by evaluating factors that relate to water movement characteristics of the soil. The result is six nitrate leaching classes that group soil associations based on the relative probability of nitrate movement through the associated soil profiles. The ranking is qualitative, and is based on the median leaching value of the soil map units that comprise each soil association. Nitrate leaching classes include: Excessive, High, Moderate, Somewhat Limited, Limited, and Very Limited. See ISGS EG 148 for the derivation of these classes. To provide a measure of leaching class variability within each association, leaching class range values were calculated. To reduce the impact of extreme leaching class values on this estimate, the the range values were trimmed so that the upper and lower 10% of values were not included in the calculation. These trimmed range values were used as an overprint on the published map of nitrate leaching classes (see cross reference entries). Disturbed land and surface water areas are also shown. These data are to be used in conjunction with ISGS Environmental Geology report 148. This data set is one of a suite of six related data sets (listed below). Full citation details are available in the Cross References section. Aquifer Sensitivity to Contamination by Nitrate Leaching in Illinois Nitrate Leaching Classes of Illinois Soils (this data set) Nitrate Leaching Class Ranges Aquifer Sensitivity to Contamination by Pesticide Leaching in Illinois Pesticide Leaching Classes of Illinois Soils Pesticide Leaching Class Ranges This coverage includes county lines. These lines are not directly relevant to the data, but are necessary for technical reasons. Without the additional county lines, some of the polygons exceed the maximum allowable vertex limit in ARCPLOT. This problem is solved by the additional county lines, which serve to divide polygons with too many vertices into smaller units. Accordingly, to remove the county lines from maps created with ARCPLOT, the DROPLINE command must be used on conjunction with the COUNT-FED-FIPS polygon item. |
