The Biodiversity Rapid Assessment project, based on the ‘Systematic Conservation Planning’ concept, has identified which terrestrial and marine ecosystems are under most pressure; how well they are represented in protected areas; and where the spatial priorities should be for future conservation implementation within the Abu Dhabi Emirate.

These project outputs provide a sound basis for more detailed biodiversity and land use planning and a foundation for systematic conservation planning in the future for the Emirate.
