In the next few days, we will carry out such a rapid biological survey and species diversity image collection in a scientific form, which will help the establishment of Qinghai Lake National Park and further shape the image of Qinghai Lake National Park as a model province on the international stage. Further promote the unique ecosystem and ecological landscape of Qinghai Lake. Further display the achievements of Qinghai Lake in the construction of ecological civilization and the management of nature reserves.
Qinghai Lake is located in the northeast of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which is the largest inland saltwater lake in China, a typical representative of the wetland type of inland lakes in the world's plateau, and an important node of the international migratory bird migration channel. In 1992, Qinghai Lake Bird Island was included in the first list of wetlands of international importance. From August 2017, 8, in order to reduce the impact of tourism activities on the ecological environment of Qinghai Lake and protect the ecological environment and natural resources of Qinghai Lake, Qinghai Lake Bird Island Scenic Area closed its doors and stopped all tourism operations.

This time, there may be new discoveries, or there is a new bird species record in Qinghai Lake, the improvement of the environment, or the increase in people's attention, bird species are increasing every year, improving, from our Qinghai Province birds, 432 species have now reached more than 500 species, has come, but there are many bird species have been newly discovered. One of the main flagship species around our Qinghai Lake is the black-necked crane, which is relatively high in reproductive quality, and another one, our winter winter, the gathering place of the winter migratory bird Cygnet, is also in this place.
It is understood that Qinghai Lake enjoys the reputation of "gene bank of species on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau", and there are 232 species of birds and 42 species of mammals in the reserve. After years of efforts, the ecological environment and wildlife habitat environment of Qinghai Lake wetland have been continuously improved, and the water body of Qinghai Lake has reached 4625.6 square kilometers, and the total number of water birds of indicator species is about 60,2007, reaching the maximum since monitoring in <>.

Some (water level) is low and high, which has an impact on birds, the so-called water level is too high, after a large area of this grassland is flooded, those birds it has less breeding grounds here, it has fewer choices, so last year you looked at this place for the protection of birds, specially built such an artificial island. If you look at it now, there are a lot of spotted geese on it, and I believe that it must use this island to sit on its nest, and build this to protect our birds so that they can settle here in peace. Then the ecological environment as a whole, including the change of water quality, including the surrounding ecological environment and these counties around Qinghai Lake, its overall environment and ecological environment have improved, so this is a big change than when I came before, I feel that the change is still very big.
On the same day, the Qinghai Lake Comprehensive Observation and Research Station of the Institute of Tibetan Plateau Research of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources held a ceremony on Qinghai Lake Bird Island. According to reports, the observatory will take Qinghai Lake as the core to strengthen the research on scientific issues such as the atmosphere-hydrological-ecological interaction in the Qinghai Lake Basin and its response and feedback to climate change, and provide scientific and technological support for the construction of Qinghai Lake National Park and the construction of Qinghai Lake National Important Ecological Security Barrier.
