5 1 Data Cleaning Before combining into a common database, more than 30 datasets have been cleaned and homogenised separately. Cleaning steps comprised the following steps (Figure S1 gives a graphical overview): 1. Structure: Datasets have been adjusted to the database structure. 2. Coordinates: Coordinates have been transformed to a common Coordinate Reference System (DHDN / 3-Grad Gauss-Krüger Zone 3 (EPSG:31467)) and duplicates merged. 3. Chemicals: Chemical names and identiers have been unied using the webchem package ( 4. Identiers: Unique identiers have been assigned. 5. Units: All concentrations have been converted to µg/l. Values below limit of quantication were set to zero (and can be used to identify non-detects). 6. Other meta-data: meta-data has been standardised. 7. Temporal resolution: The temporal resolution of the database is 1 day. Samplings below this resolution have been aggregated by the maximum daily value. 8. Validity Checks: Simple rules for validity checks have been implemented. S5

A power function was tted to each dataset separately (colored dashed lines) and the combined dataset (black line and equation). The grey rectangle marks the estimated catchment size for a width of 1 m (=7 km 2 ). Data was compiled from three dierent sources: Fernández et al. (1), Voss et al. (2) and the federal state of Thuringia. S33
