T/CGDF 00001-2020 Biodiversity Survey and Monitoring Standards

Scope

Scope: This standard applies to different regions, forests of various sizes, deserts, grasslands, inland rivers and lakes, other wetlands, coastal beaches, farmlands, urban ecosystems, and species diversity, as well as genetic resource diversity surveys and monitoring. Marine ecosystems are excluded. This standard applies to regional biodiversity baseline surveys, ecological environmental impact assessments for project construction and development, the establishment and construction of protected areas, and the restoration of polluted or damaged areas, among other related work. This standard applies to real-time, monthly, quarterly, annual, and multi-year biodiversity surveys and monitoring. Main technical content: Biodiversity surveys and monitoring refer to the investigation and monitoring of water (water systems, runoff, etc.), soil (topography, terrain, soil, etc.), air (temperature, precipitation, CO2, N2, etc.), and organisms (animals, plants, microorganisms, etc.) within a certain area, in order to clearly understand the current status of biodiversity in the surveyed area. This standard specifies the scope, cycle, principles, content, and methods of biodiversity surveys and monitoring, as well as key survey objects and results requirements. It serves as a basis for conducting natural science surveys of protected areas and conservation sites of different ecological types. Artificial ecosystems, such as farmlands and cities, can refer to this standard. This standard mainly includes: - Biodiversity survey and monitoring standard - Applicable scope - Normative reference documents - Terminology and definitions - Survey and monitoring time - Survey and monitoring cycle - Survey and monitoring principles - Survey and monitoring content - 7.1 Natural conditions - 7.2 Ecosystems - 7.3 Species - 7.4 Genes - 7.5 Disturbed states - Survey or monitoring objects and methods - 8.1 Ecosystems - 8.2 Plants - 8.3 Terrestrial mammals - 8.4 Birds - 8.5 Amphibians and reptiles
