WWF has produced this atlas to help guide efforts in conserving the biodiversity in the Yangtze basin upon which economic development depends. It is based on extensive research by leading experts on the distribution of key protected species and zones of high biodiversity in the basin.
This book provides new data on these migratory birds, in a key geographical area for their conservation which provides refuge for the major part of their Palearctic populations.

More than 400 colour pictures illustrate typical natural ecosystems and cultural landscapes. The focus is on the ecological conditions and characteristics that have a particularly strong influence (e.g. fire as an ecological factor, human use of natural resources, physiological adaptations).
The final product is an impressive and voluminous book with more than 900 pages of maps of distribution for 495 European bird species, accompanying text and information on the population size estimates for key countries where it is present.
