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 />
