Lovely. Good focus for farmers in the catchment area to look after the stream.

Freshwater is essential for life. When we prioritize the conservation of watershedsโincluding the streams, wetlands, and rivers that connect usโwe are also ensuring thereโs plenty of water to go around, for all of us.
Happy World Water Day!

"Values and curves are shown for two alternative conservation strategies: a) maximises rarity-weighted richness, and b) maximises inclusion of the most range-restricted species. See Methods for a full explanation of each strategy. Surrogate effectiveness is measured using the Species Accumulation Index (SAI): values range from โโ to 1, with 1 indicating perfect surrogacy, values between 1 and 0 indicating positive surrogacy, 0 indicating no surrogacy, and values less than 0 indicating negative surrogacy. In each panel, median SAI values are provided, with lower and upper confidence intervals in brackets. Blue lines are the optimal curves (accumulation of target diversity based on target priority areas); red lines are the surrogate curves (accumulation of target diversity based on surrogate priority areas); and grey lines are the random curves (accumulation of target diversity based on random selection of areas). Confidence intervals (95%, based on 100 randomisations) are shown in lighter shading around curves; most are too small to be visible." https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-08375-z/figures/7
๐Conservation actions include habitat restoration, tackling pollution and invasive species, and integrating biodiversity into water governance. Indicators like water quality fail to monitor biodiversity effectively, highlighting the need for freshwater-specific data.
