The Big Bend reach of the central Platte River serves as a major staging area for migratory water birds (waterfowl, wading birds, shorebirds) during spring migration. Reduced spring flows and drought conditions within the Platte system have promoted encroachment by undesirable woody and herbaceous invasive species. This encroachment has caused the once shallow braided channels of the Platte River to incise. This action has significantly reduced available habitat for roosting and loafing Sandhill Cranes, endangered Whooping Cranes, and millions of waterfowl that annually utilize the Platte River each spring. This change in river morphology has also reduced available nesting habitat for the federally listed Interior...

This is a land cover dataset for Nebraska that was most recently updated in 2020 by the Rainwater Basin Joint Venture. This metadata record supplements the complete description of the data in Bishop, A., Grosse,R., Barenberg, A., Volpe, N., and Riens, J. January, Nebraska Land Cover Development Version 2016. Rainwater Basin Joint Venture, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Grand Island, Nebraska.

Historic wetland footprints produced by combining National Wetland Inventory (NWI, 2009 updated), NRCS hydric soils data, and contemporary field surveys. These historic footprints provide the basis for restoration implementation within the Rainwater Basin Wetland Complex. This data was revised in 2016, succeeding the 2004 version. The 2016 revisions included eliminating historic wetland survey data, replacing NWI with the 2009 updated data, and inclusion of Olbut soils as a hydric soil class.
These raster files showing wetland areas that were functional during Rainwater Basin Wetland Complex Annual Habitat Survey. Annual Habitat Surveys (AHS) identify areas of wetland ponding and function (ponding and potential hydrophyte vegetation) during spring migration. The information is developed by Rainwater Basin Joint Venture to identifying how much habitat the Rainwater Basin Wetland Complex provides to migratory waterfowl on an annual basis. AHS have been completed for 2004 and 2006-2020 where high-resolution aerial photos of the Rainwater Basin Wetland Complex are classified using an image object classification software to determine land cover (hydrophyte water, agriculture water, hydrophytes, agriculture,...

Historic wetland footprints produced by combining historic soil surveys, National Wetland Inventory (NWI), NRCS hydric soils data, and contemporary field surveys. The NWI data available at the time of production was the original 1980s data. These historic footprints provide the basis for restoration implementation within the Rainwater Basin Wetland Complex. This data was revised in 2016 but the 2004 version is still used in some long-term datasets produced by the Rainwater Basin Joint Venture.

Inundation is a critical parameter of wetland hydrologic performance. This study uses Annual Habitat Survey data from 2004 to 2012 in the Rainwater Basin in south-central Nebraska to examine differences between the actual inundation conditions and three datasets: the National Wetland Inventory (NWI), the Soil Survey Geographic database (SSURGO), and LiDAR-derived depressions. The results show that current wetland inundated areas were well overlaid with these datasets (99.9% in SSURGO data, 67.9% in NWI data, and 87.3;% in LiDAR-derived depressions). However, the hydrologic degradation of playa wetlands was not reflected in these datasets. In SSURGO data, only 13.3% of hydric soil footprint areas were inundated and...
