EAFES Symposium ES02 -- 19 March 9:00-12:00 Room C

Biodiversity assessment of freshwater ecosystems: for the new collaboration among Asian countries

Organizers: NAKANO, Shin-ichi (CER, Kyoto Univ), TAKAMURA, Noriko (NIES)

In the present session, we introduce new efforts by Japanese freshwater researchers for better biodiversity assessment and conservation in freshwater ecosystems under threat of environmental deterioration. In 2011 July, some Japanese freshwater researchers have established the team which conducts identification of DPSIR in Japanese freshwater ecosystems using the information about environmental parameters collected in freshwater environments in Japan. We will invite some speakers from other Asian countries to share our information about Asian biodiversity for future collaboration.
