  3. Due to natural succession and anthropogenic impact Lake Engure is overgrowing rapidly . Masivization of reed stands causes decrease in waterfowl and fish populations. Nesting waterfowl needs mosaic type reed beds with open water around them. Massive reed stands causes increase of predators such as American mink and raccoon dog . Project territory 1. Actualsituation

  4. 2. Aim of the project Aim of this project is to create technical project for restoration of habitats for waterfowl and improvement of hydrological regime of lake Engure in northern part of the lake and creation of tourism and scientific infrastructure for ecotourism and monitoring of waterfowl populations what could be a good cooperation between nature protection and sustainable economics in wetland

  5. 3. Creation of open water areas and channels Fragmentation of reed beds is necessary for improvement of hydrological situation Legend Main directions of water flow

  6. 3. Main principles for fragmentation Legend Zone of island-channel mosaic Water ways for ecotourism use and management .

  7. 3. Building of artificial islands Placement zone Visualization of island fragmets

  8. 3. Indicatorsofsuccesfulrestourationofmosaicstructure • Improwementofwaterfowlpopulations • Improwementoffishpopulations • Decreaseofanthropogenicimpact • Structurationofbiotopes

  9. 3. Bird watching places on floating platforms. Placementzones vizualization

  10. 3. Bird watching towers and hides on poles Placement zones vizualization

  11. 3.Creation of information center Placement place vizualization legend It is planned to create floating information center witch is used for ecotourism and management of the territory Information center

  12. 3. Indicators for tourism and scientific infrastructure Improvement of scientific monitoring Raised education level of society in wetland management and protection Harmonic co-living of local society and nature protection

  13. 4. Summary Due to used methods and principles of proposed activities it is clear that creation of technical project is highly necessary for further development of proposed activities and could be as a good example for cooperation between nature protection and sustainable economic interests in wetland management.
