Incorporate biodiversity c<strong>on</strong>servati<strong>on</strong> into nati<strong>on</strong>al and local ec<strong>on</strong>omic and<br />
social development planning.<br />
Based <strong>on</strong> comprehensive analysis of social and ec<strong>on</strong>omic development trends<br />
and government work priorities, study and develop guidelines for<br />
incorporating biodiversity c<strong>on</strong>servati<strong>on</strong> into nati<strong>on</strong>al and local ec<strong>on</strong>omic and<br />
social development planning, and select 1-2 sectors and 1-2 provinces (regi<strong>on</strong>s)<br />
for pilot dem<strong>on</strong>strati<strong>on</strong>.<br />
Project 8: Biodiversity survey and cataloguing in priority areas<br />
C<strong>on</strong>tent: The project (with durati<strong>on</strong> of 10 years) will<br />
<br />
<br />
Undertake baseline surveys in 32 priority areas for inland territorial and<br />
aquatic biodiversity c<strong>on</strong>servati<strong>on</strong> priority areas, including species and<br />
populati<strong>on</strong>s, ecosystem types, areas and c<strong>on</strong>servati<strong>on</strong> status.<br />
Assess the threatened status of biodiversity and propose plans for each priority<br />
area for designing nature reserve networks, the establishment of biodiversity<br />
m<strong>on</strong>itoring networks and addressing impacts of climate change <strong>on</strong> biodiversity.<br />
Project 9: Survey and cataloguing of aquatic biological resources for major<br />
rivers and lakes<br />
C<strong>on</strong>tent: The project (with durati<strong>on</strong> of 10 years) will<br />
<br />
<br />
Undertake survey and cataloguing of species, populati<strong>on</strong>s and habitats of<br />
aquatic species in rivers including the Yangtse River, Zhujiang River, the<br />
Yellow River, Heil<strong>on</strong>gjiang River and lakes including Poyang Lake, D<strong>on</strong>gting<br />
Lake, Tai Lake, Qinghai Lake.<br />
Assess major aquatic biological resources, especially the threatened status of<br />
fishery resources and propose c<strong>on</strong>servati<strong>on</strong> measures.<br />
Project 10: Survey and cataloguing of biological resources c<strong>on</strong>served ex-situ in<br />
city gardens<br />
C<strong>on</strong>tent: The project (with durati<strong>on</strong> of 3 years) will<br />
<br />
<br />
Undertake survey, classificati<strong>on</strong> and cataloguing of species c<strong>on</strong>served in major<br />
urban zoos, botanical gardens, arboretums, wildlife parks, aquariums and<br />
farms.<br />
Identify the ex-situ c<strong>on</strong>servati<strong>on</strong> status of biological resources in city gardens.<br />
