Range Maps For The Terrestrial Natural Communities Of Nebraska, Steven B. Rolfsmeier, Gerry Steinauer, Rachel Simpson
Nebraska Game and Parks Commission: White Papers, Conference Presentations, and Manuscripts
This document includes range maps for the 83 terrestrial natural (plant) communities described in Terrestrial Ecological Systems and Natural Communities of Nebraska (Version IV - March 9, 2010) by Rolfsmeier and Steinauer 2010. Each map includes the known range and potential range for individual community types. The known range includes areas where a community has been documented and areas where it has not been documented but thought very likely to occur. The potential range includes areas where the community has not been documented but is thought to have some potential to occur. The maps should be considered approximations of the …

Habitat Assessment For Nebraska's At-Risk Species: Descriptions Of Species Models Used In The Chat (Crucial Habitat Assessment Tool) Species Of Concern Data Layer, Rachel Simpson, Rick Schneider
Nebraska Game and Parks Commission: White Papers, Conference Presentations, and Manuscripts
As part of an effort across the western U.S. states led by the Western Governors’ Association, the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission synthesized information related to habitat for at-risk native species and natural plant communities. The result, submitted to the WGA in the fall of 2013, is coarse-scale, landscape-level information that can be used by anyone for land-use planning. The product of this west-wide collaboration is called the Crucial Habitat Assessment Tool (CHAT). The information, provided through an online GIS-mapping tool, is non-regulatory and gives project planners and the general public access to credible scientific data on a broad scale …
