Habitat conservation Sample Clauses

Habitat conservation. Naturally most waterbird habitats are wetlands and at an international policy level they are therefore covered by the Ramsar Convention. Under AEWA, relevant practical conservation activities are underway through the development of a Critical Site Network (CSN) Tool as part of the Wings Over Wetlands (WOW) UNEP-GEF African-Eurasian Flyways Project. The “CSN Tool” will combine the databases on Ramsar Sites, the International Waterbird Database, the Important Bird Area Database and the World Protected Area Database. It is expected that by the end of 2010 this tool will be operational. A first beta- version of the CSN Tool is now accessible via the WOW Project website: xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/CSN As a follow up to MOP4, particularly regarding the study carried out by the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO) on ‘The Effect of Climate Change on Migratory Waterbirds within the African-Eurasian Flyways’, the Technical Committee will review the adequacy of the existing international networks of sites for the conservation of migratory waterbird populations, taking into consideration the projected climate change effects, and will suggest complementary approaches to be taken under AEWA.

Habitat conservation. Italy has established a conservation area of 3000 sites – the Ramsar Classification System was used to collect information. In Bulgaria 114 SPAs were proposed but none had actually been designated due to lack of political will. In Slovenia artificial breeding rafts were set up for the Little and Common Terns (Sterna albidrons and S. hirundo). In the Czech Republic, a project is being carried out on the disturbance of geese flocks in gathering places. As part of the project the influence of hunting, traffic and wind turbines will be analyzed. Italy reported on the recreation of fresh water marshes in Sicily. Slovenia reported on several projects for creating wetlands for corncrakes. Croatia has also recently launched a restoration project of the only Redshank breeding habitat in the country.

A beta version of the “CSN Tool” was launched at the 15th Anniversary of AEWA in June 2010 in The Hague, the Netherlands and it is expected to be fully operational by the end of 2010: A first beta-version of the CSN Tool is already accessible via the WOW Project website: xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/csntool In June 2010 the AEWA Secretariat, also representing the CMS Secretariat, took part in a Ramsar Advisory Mission (RAM) (jointly undertaken by the three MEAs) to Congo on advising the Government of Congo on the conservation of Cayo-Loufoualeba Ramsar Site. The RAM report was approved and is now available here: xxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/pdf/ram/ram_rpt_66e.pdf
