Biodiversity Surveys

TIES periodically conducts comprehensive biodiversity surveys to assess and evaluate the diversity and population density of various species in different ecosystems. These surveys encompass a wide range of both flora and fauna, ensuring a thorough understanding of the biodiversity present in the region. The primary objective of these surveys is to develop strategic plans for the conservation and sustainable development of these species, contributing to the preservation of local biodiversity.

A significant emphasis is placed on urban areas, as these regions are often the least conserved and face the highest levels of environmental stress. The surveys provide crucial data that aid in planning targeted conservation measures to protect and enhance biodiversity in these areas. Specific surveys conducted by TIES include studies on birds, butterflies, dragonflies, house sparrows, and various plant species. These efforts are vital for developing effective conservation strategies and promoting sustainable urban biodiversity management.
