Water resources are a key factor for regional sustainable development. However, the published water resource data in China is based on a large geographical scale, such as watershed units, and the data cannot reflect subtle differences in water resource distribution. The paper aimed to distribute water resources of the third-order basin of China into grid-cells of 1 km × 1 km. First, we used Mor...

Volatile organic compounds (VOC) are present at over two-thirds of Superfund, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA), and U.S. Department of Defense sites (EPA 1996).
