Depth is a fundamental property of lakes, essential for understanding and quantifying a range of biological, chemical, and physical processes of individual lakes as well as the collective functioning of the millions of lakes across the globe. Despite this importance, lake depth is rarely available for large numbers of lakes across the broad scales of regions and continents. We describe a new open‐access dataset, LAGOS‐US DEPTH, which contains 17,675 maximum depths and 6,137 mean depths for lakes in the conterminous United States. These data represent one of the largest compilations of lake depths in the world and are connected to other data products through the LAGOS‐US research platform. Here, we describe characteristics of lake maximum depth across the conterminous United States and identify gaps in data coverage that we encourage other researchers to fill by linking their own depth datasets for lakes within the LAGOS‐US spatial footprint. Extending this open‐access effort to include other regions and countries across the globe to build a more comprehensive and representative database of lake depth would better position scientists to quantify and articulate the critical roles that lakes play globally in biogeochemical cycling, maintaining biodiversity, and in maintaining the many ecosystem services that lakes provide.
