New Delhi: Avian species like red-studded Ibis and Kingfisher species and migration that are attacked by women when the institution’s center for the study of the earth stepped out to record their presence as part of the census of bird diversity.
The College campus located in North Delhi might note so many species because the area of ​​21 hectares has a lot of open green space, the universities have been further cultivated by planting flowering plant arrays and fruit trees.
The count was proven to the center of the Study of the Earth that “green patches in the middle of the urban landscape not only increases the ecology of the city, but also allows space for the population of birds to develop”.
Anindita Roy Saha, Center Ordinator Center, “with Yamuna on one side and the North Delhi Ridge on the other hand, the IPC College campus is a habitat island that accommodates many species of birds, butterflies, dragonflies, etc., maintains healthy food chains in micro ecosystems this.
It is home to a wide variety of species of birds ranging from forests, open areas and wetlands, seasonal and migrate.
“the views GamesThe Students and IP College authorities should be commended for this eco-friendly initiatives.
Other schools and colleges, especially those who have large campuses, can follow their path.
Saha shows that when Delhi has undergone rapid urbanization over the past few decades, habitats available for bird species such as natural forests and wetlands also have rejected.
This is the reason why urban fillings, such as those in the college IP, are very important.
He said such habitat islands can be created by planting large trees such as Neem, Ashok and Mango, with smaller trees and growing fast and bushes that act as excellent habitats for birds.
“Studying urban biodiversity provides valuable insights about the conservation of residual habitat patches,” said the coordinator.
“Birds, because of their popularity, ease of observation and ecosystem services, has the potential to play an important role in directing perceptions and policies about urban development.” Avian housing on campus involves multi-season monitoring for three years.
“Various bird species seen on the campus are extraordinary,” said Saha.
“Species such as red-studded ibis and white kingfisher who have often seen in urban areas but often visit campus.
Because of the proximity to Yamuna Khadar, river species such as riding lapwings that are sometimes seen nesting on campus.” Project Coordinator Nawin K.
Tiwary, an Ortitology trained, adding, “Birds are the most easily understood life forms in cities.
They can be seen from our balcony, in the park and park and even on the roadside.
The sound of birds and sightings gives us a feeling of closeness to nature in multi urban matrices this dimension.
