Data Supporting a Framework to Incorporate Established Conservation Networks into Freshwater Conservation Planning

This data set provides the results of a conservation prioritization analysis for wadeable streams in Missouri, USA. Higher values (Maximum of 1) represent higher conservation value. Conservation values were derived using Zonation conservation planning software which used species distribution models, a prioritization algorithm (either Core-Area or Additive Benefit), species weighting (None, Vulnerability, or Listing Status), connecitivity (Yes or No), and masks representing different conservation networks (None, Priority Watersheds, Conservation Opportunity Areas, and Existing Conservation Network). For more information see "An Assessment of Stream Fish Vulnerability and an Evaluation of Conservation Networks in Missouri" by Nicholas Sievert, 2014, University of Missouri-Columbia, Thesis.
