12. Structure of national reports on biodiversity
National reports cover ecosystem of Caspian Sea, coastal
inhabitation paces, coastal wetlands and deltas of rivers with relevant species. 70s-80s
will be described in general and 90s more elaborately

Introduction
Summary
1. Biological and landscape diversity factors
1.1 Physical-geographical conditions
- Climate
- Relief
- Landscapes
- Natural resources
- Hydrology and hydrochemistry
1.2 Social-economic conditions
- Coastal territories population
- Social conditions
- Industry
- Agricultural assimilation of coastal territories
- Recreation use of coastal territories
- Aquatic culture
2. Present status of biological and landscape diversity
- Marine community
- Bacterial plankton
- Phytoplankton
- High-trophic marine fauna
- Animal plankton
- Benthos
- Ichthyofauna
- Aquatic animals (mammals)
- Birds
- Coastal community (Coastal and shore zones)
- Flora
- Fauna
- Rare threatened and endangered species and their ecotopes
- Plants
- Animals
- Birds
- Fishes
- Particularly valuable species (sturgeons and others)
- Landscapes
- Valuable landscapes
- Wetlands
- Sensitive ecotopes
3. Risk factors effect on biological and landscape diversity
- Contamination
- Sea level rise
- Regulation of river outlet
- Predatory fishes catch (poaching)
- Eutrophication
- Intervention of alien species and organisms
- Coastal areas desertification
- Other risk factors
4. Protection status
- Management system of biological and landscape diversity
- Existing monitoring systems of biodiversity
- Evaluation of existing nationally protected territories and their protection status,
especially for transboundary and migratory species
- Other effective elements of biodiversity protection
- Control over the status of biodiversity
- Public awareness and involvement of other sectors
5. Legal mechanisms for biodiversity protection
- Existing legislation aimed at biodiversity protection
- Necessary legal acts on biodiversity protection
- Status of works on international conventions relating to biodiversity
6. Recommendations on protection and rehabilitation of biodiversity (on national and
regional levels)
[Recultivation of contaminated or affected coastal territories.
Restrictions on pollutants discharges to the coastal waters. Limitations of coastal
territories submersion. Artificial reproduction of valuable fish species. Amelioration of
natural spawning spots and migration paths. Regulation of fish catch and hunting.
Protected territories. Conservation and recovery of ecotopes. Environmental education and
training. Pilot projects on biodiversity. Economic, institutional and legal aspects.]
