Investigation and Monitoring for Ecology at the Taipei Water Special District,(2023-2024)(1/2)

Study Extent

This project conducted a four seasons biological survey in 2023, that had 7 sampling sites inside the Taipei water source district.

Sampling

This project conducted a four-season biological survey of birds, amphibians, reptiles, butterflies, dragonflies, fish, benthos and other animals in a specific area of Taipei water source district. We used line-transect method to surveyed bird, amphibians, reptiles, butterflies, dragonflies, and used vocal individuality method to surveyed bird, and used point count method to surveyed birds, amphibians, and used electrical fishing, cage trap, throw net, surber sampler to surveyed fish, and water invertebrate. Conservation species and Taiwan Red Book species in the coordinates will be blurred to a certain extent.

Method steps

1. The project uses Geographic information System (GIS) as the survey path, sampling location and biological calibration for ecological survey and had 4 sampling sites nearby Peishih stream, 2 sampling sites nearby Nanshih stream, 1 sampling sites nearby Sindian stream, surveys are conducted every season(4 times). We did survey in winter(2023/2), spring(2023/4), summer(2023/7), fall(2023/9-10), all survey conducted by professional investigator.
