Description
new detailed series of surveys of the freshwater macro-invertebrate fauna of selected rivers within the Kruger National Park is planned. We aim to compare results from these new surveys (species richness and distribution) with historical records, and look at what external factors are impacting the populations in sections of rivers where there is a notable reduction in diversity and water quality.
Data Records
The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 5,902 records.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.
