Hydrology Composite Analysis

Definition of High Quality Stream Watershed Tier System:Tier 1: <20 persons/sq.mi., <1% developed land cover, and <5% of land use is AgriculturalTier 2: <36 persons/sq.mi., <2% developed land cover, and <5% of land use is AgriculturalTier 3: <64 persons/sq.mi., <3% developed land cover, and <5% of land use is AgriculturalTier 4: <90 persons/sq.mi., <5% developed land cover, and <5% of land use is Agricultural

All other catchments fail to meet one or more of the Tier 4 criteria.

The Pemigewasset River WatershedStudy Area Co-occurrence Analysis

This Co-occurrence map was developed by assigning one point for each natural feature identified in the Habitat and Catchment Hydrology Analyses.Tier 2 Habitat, HUC 12 Tier 1 Water Quality and Catchment Tier 3 each had a value of two. Tier 1 Habitat and Catchment Tier 2 had a value of three.Catchment Tier 1 had a value of four points.These layers were placed atop one another then the values for each cell were added up.
