Draft - Potential Distribution of Alligator gar (Atractosteus spatula)

Note:  The contents of this map are still under development and are being made available for illustration purposes only.  These data are not to be used without permission by the map author.Potential distribution of Alligator gar (Atractosteus spatula) in Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana.  NHDplus segments are coded for the likelihood of the Alligator gar being present. The likelihood is based on the SARP river size class and Omernik Ecoregion Level III where this fish was found by state fish community sampling efforts. The fish sampling data can be downloaded from the Multistate Aquatic Resources Information System (www.marisdata.org). This fish species is thought to be sensitive to alterations in the flow...

Final Report: Data provision and projected impact of climate change on fish biodiversity within the Desert LCC

The four primary objectives of this project were to: (1) compile a dataset of fish occurrence records for the entirety of the Rio Grande drainage in the US and Mexico; (2) improve that dataset by reformatting dates, synonymizing species names to a modern taxonomy, georeferencing localities, and flagging geographic outliers; (3) for those species with sufficient data for modeling, create species distribution models (SDMs); (4) use the environmental conditions determined via those models to project the species distributions into the future under two climate scenarios. To accomplish those objectives, we compiled 495,101 fish occurrence records mined from 122 original sources into a single database. We then, on the...
