Missouri River Aquatic GAP Project
- The principal goal of our project was to identify riverine ecosystems and species not adequately represented (i.e., gaps) in the matrix of conservation lands in the Missouri River Basin.
- Provide spatially explicit data that could be used by natural resource professionals, legislators, and the public to make more informed decisions for prioritizing opportunities to fill these conservation gaps and to devise strategic approaches for developing effective long-term biodiversity conservation plans.
The Missouri Resource Assessment Partnership (MoRAP) is collaborating with the states of Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, and South Dakota to complete a gap analysis of riverine biodiversity for the entire Missouri River Basin. MoRAP received monies from the USGS National Gap Analysis Program to complete an Aquatic Ecological Classification for Iowa, Kansas, and Nebraska, and also to develop predicted distribution maps for all fish species throughout Nebraska. Iowa and Kansas are developing predicted species distribution maps for their respective states, whereas South Dakota is developing all of the geospatial data for the upper Missouri River Basin.
