Water quality data for urban (centralized versus distributed stormwater management) and forested reference watersheds in Clarksburg, MD (2004-2016)

Data were obtained in order to evaluate differences among watersheds that vary in stormwater management practice arrangement by assessing differences in baseflow nutrient fluxes and stormflow export of suspended sediments and total particulate phosphorus. The study area is located the Piedmont in Clarksburg, Montgomery, County Maryland. Watersheds included a forested watershed (For-MD), centralized stormwater management watershed (Cent-MD), and distributed stormwater management watershed (Dist-MD).
