Dados Sobre o Projeto

This dataset was part of a project to advance access to quality freshwater data and information in Uganda by harnessing capacity in data mobilization, data available through GBIF and engagements with data user institutions. The goal was to advance utility of the data in conservation decision making, advocacy, education and reporting on biodiversity. Limited capacity of users to develop biodiversity information from primary biodiversity data, coupled with some deficiencies in data available through GBIF, is a main barrier to data use. This project worked to improve the quality of the data the National Fisheries Resources Research Institute (NaFIRRI) published through GBIF and used all the data available to develop freshwater biodiversity information to guide conservation planning. The quality of the occurrences were improved by linking them with abundance data and coordinates. Then, using all data available in GBIF, the project developed information products tailored to conservation planning. The information was envisaged to have a direct entry point into policies and practices of Uganda’s agricultural sector. The sector had been identified by the National Environmental Management Authority (NEMA) through a national biodiversity information Political and Economic Analysis (PEA), as the biggest sector threatening biodiversity. The information products developed were tailored to the information needs of the sector as defined in the PEA.

Métodos de Amostragem

The checklist is based on databases such as FishBase and literature

Descrição dos passos do método:

1. The checklist is based on databases such as FishBase and literature. A preliminary list of the fish species in Uganda was downloaded from FishBase, a global online database of fishes (Froese & Pauly, 2022). The taxonomic status of the names was checked using Eschmeyer’s Catalog of fishes (Fricke et al., 2022). More information was obtained from literature such as Decru et al. (2020).
