BCUB – a large-sample ungauged basin attribute dataset for British Columbia, Canada. Kovacek, D. & Weijs, S. Earth System Science Data, 17(1):259–275, January, 2025.

Paper doi abstract bibtex The British Columbia Ungauged Basin (BCUB) dataset is an open-source, extensible dataset of attributes describing terrain, soil, land cover, and climate indices of over 1.2 million ungauged catchments in British Columbia, Canada, including trans-boundary regions. The attributes included in the dataset are similar to those found in the large-sample hydrology literature for their association with hydrological processes. The BCUB database is intended to support water resources research and practice, namely monitoring network analysis studies, or hydrological modelling where basin characterization is used for model calibration. The dataset and the complete workflow to collect and process input data, to derive stream networks, and to delineate sub-basins and extract attributes, are available under a Creative Commons BY 4.0 license. The DOI link for the BCUB dataset is https://doi.org/10.5683/SP3/JNKZVT (Kovacek and Weijs, 2023).
