Attribute - Info sheet
Mosquito population control
In the ‘status quo’, the wetland area would remain as it is at present, covering 1/6th of its natural size i.e. 3 km2 in total.
Advanced restoration The wetland area would be restored to 2/3rds of its natural size i.e. 9 km2 in total
Moderate restoration The wetland area would be restored to 1/3rd of its natural size i.e. 6 km2 in total.
Size of Wetland Please examine the policy proposals below and try to perceive combinations hereof in reality.
Hedges
Protection and recreation
Status Quo - Little protection and little recreation There is access along the dyke, without any public facilities, and no official hunting restriction.
Observation and recreational exploration: There is some access to the wetland, with various recreational opportunities, such as kayaking, biking and observation towers. Hunting is restricted to certain areas.
Observation and protection. Hunting is banned, and there is minimal access to the public. Instead, a surrounding circuit is equipped with information signs and observation towers.

This attribute refers to the extent to which the area is occupied by human activities, such as the extent of hunting and recreational access, pathways, and public facilities facilitating observation and education.
More Most Status quo - few
This attribute refers to the extent of of tree hedges along the dyke that follows the channel
Status Quo - Low: There is little change in the level of biodiversity in the valley.
Medium: The population of common and rare species of ducks, birds, dragon flies, turtles and fish will increase.
High: The population of common and rare species of birds, insects, dragon flies, turtles and fish will increase a lot. Several rare bird species may return, but it cannot be guaranteed.

Natural control methods such as strict water level management and biological control such as fish.
