"God Bird" adds points for the application

The mouth of the Minjiang River Estuary Wetland is located in the northeast of Changle District. It consists of a lot of wetlands such as Paoyan Beach, Batzhou, Daoqingzhou, and Tajiaozhou. It covers an area of ​​more than 20,000 hectares. Hectare.

It is this rich coastal wetland that allows a high -speed provincial capital city to "breathe", but also allows people to capture the natural beauty of reed fluttering and migratory birds at any time, and has high ecology and culture.

The beauty is rare, but it is not rare. In the past, there was a successful application of the Yellow Sea Wetland of Yancheng, as well as wetlands such as the Yellow River mouth wetland and Chongming Island in the queue.

"This depends on whether the long board is long enough." Lei Guangchun, a professor at the School of Ecology and Nature Conservation of Beijing Forestry University, believes that rare and endangered birds are a large board for wetlands. The Minjiang River Estuary Wetland is located on the Migratory Birds with the largest number of migratory birds. East Asia -Australia and Western migration routes. There are 313 species observed. There are 5 types of birds in IUCN extremely crisis. Biological diversity is particularly rich. Among them, the "Bird of Myth" China Caper Switch is the largest "bonus item" in the wetland of the mouth of the Minjiang River.

Judging from the current discovery of the world, there are no more than 150 Chinese cracked roots, which are extremely rare. Since 2009, the world's earliest Chinese codona ternoviring observation records were born in the wetland of the Minjiang River estuary. In addition, black -faced spoonbills, spoonful mouths, rolling feathers pelicans, and gulls such as endangered endangered birds appear frequently. The average annual inhabiting of wetlands has exceeded 50,000, which is an important post on the migration of migratory birds worldwide.

"Wetland application is to protect the wetland with higher positions and higher standards, and achieve comprehensive benefits of protection and development." Wang Yingzi, director of the Fuzhou Nature Protection Land Planning Development Center, said that he hopes to use the wetland of wetland in the mouth of the Minjiang River. Promote the linked countries and cities along the migration of migratory birds to be more closely linked to condense the combination of protecting wetlands and care for migratory birds.

Two "critical ten years" guardian wetland

Right now, the wetland of the mouth of the Minjiang River, the tens of thousands of migratory birds are gathered here.

For the wetland of the Minjiang River, there are two key ten years. In the first ten years, stopped unreasonable construction projects, launched the wetland legislation work, delineated the red line of wetland control, and allowed the "lost land" to return to the wetland. Form special experience in normalized protection, and find room for progress from existing results.

In the past 20 years, from the comprehensive "recovery and wetness" of farming ponds, governance of rice grass, transforming ecological bird islands, to planting mangroves and other plants to restore vegetation, clean up sea drift garbage, and absorb and transform farmers as wetland managers, Fujian Fujian, Fujian, Fujian, Fujian, Fujian, Fujian, Fujian, Fujian, Fujian, Fujian, Fujian, Fujian, Fujian. The wetland of the rivers of the river has a living space for birds to usher in a remarkable ecological butterfly change.

In 2020, the Minjiang River Estuary Wetland was selected as the "China Important Wetland" list, and the "National Ecological Civilization Pilot Zone Reform Measures and Experience and Practice Promotion List" became a typical demonstration of the ecological protection and restoration of the coastal wetland.

Recently, the "Minjiang Project", which is included in the country's second batch of landscapes, forests, lake grass ecological protection and restoration pilots.

Multiple measures and take a good way of applying for the application

In the upcoming third decade, the application will go hand in hand with the development of the wetland.

"Listing in the" preparation list "is the first step in the application. Generally speaking, the success of the application will take 8 to 12 years." Wang Yingzi said that the Hangzhou West Lake Shen Zhen used for 12 years, and the Silk Road project was spent In 8 years, the Quanzhou application project has even gone through 20 years.

At present, at the important juncture of the development and upgrading of wetland protection, Fuzhou takes the opportunity to apply for a demonstration meeting and the annual meeting of the Association for Science and Technology to invite experts academicians across the country to build suggestions for wetland application. At present, the city has accelerated the establishment of the Wetland Ecological Expert Advisory Committee, promoted the unveiling of the "Fuzhou Binhai Wetland Ecological Research Center", played the role of experts and scholars in various fields, and promoted the high -quality development of wetland protection.

"During the application process, Fuzhou will continue to explore the effective form of wetland protection and development." The relevant person in charge of the Municipal Forestry Bureau said that after drawing on the experience of all parties, the wetland of the mouth of the Minjiang River will continue to improve the level of informatization monitoring and deepen the scientific research of wetland scientific research , Continuously digging ecological value, fully promoting the wetland of the Minjiang River estuary to apply for World Natural Heritage, so that this "Fuzhou experience" has gone abroad.
