PL008
Cedynia Site


IBA Justification

The site was identified as important in 2010 because it was regularly supporting significant populations of the species listed below, meeting ('triggering') IBA criteria.

Populations meeting IBA criteria ('trigger species') at the site:
Species Red List1 Season Year(s) Size IBA criteria
Greater White-fronted Goose Anser albifrons LC passage 2004-2009 2,000-12,000 individuals C3
Common Crane Grus grus LC passage 2004-2009 120-1,800 individuals C2
Red Kite Milvus milvus LC breeding 2004-2009 5-10 breeding pairs C1

1. The current IUCN Red List category. The category at the time of the IBA criteria assessment (2010) may differ.


IBA Conservation

Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2010. The most recent assessment (2010) is shown below.

IBA conservation assessment
Year of assessment State Pressure Response
2010 near favourable very high low
Whole site assessed? State assessed by Accuracy of information
yes habitat medium

State (condition of the trigger species' habitats)
Habitat Quantity (% remaining) Quality (% carrying capacity) Result
Wetlands (inland) good (> 90%) moderate (70-90%) near favourable

Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Threat Timing Scope Severity Result
Climate change and severe weather happening now whole area/population (>90%) moderate to rapid deterioration very high
Agricultural expansion and intensification happening now majority/most of area/population (50-90%) moderate to rapid deterioration high
Residential and commercial development happening now majority/most of area/population (50-90%) moderate to rapid deterioration high
Energy production and mining likely in short term (within 4 years) majority/most of area/population (50-90%) moderate to rapid deterioration high
Biological resource use happening now majority/most of area/population (50-90%) moderate to rapid deterioration high
Invasive and other problematic species and genes likely in short term (within 4 years) majority/most of area/population (50-90%) moderate to rapid deterioration high
Pollution happening now majority/most of area/population (50-90%) moderate to rapid deterioration high
Natural system modifications likely in short term (within 4 years) majority/most of area/population (50-90%) slow but significant deterioration medium
Transportation and service corridors happening now some of area/population (10-49%) slow but significant deterioration medium
Human intrusions and disturbance likely in long term (beyond 4 years) some of area/population (10-49%) slow but significant deterioration medium
No known threats happening now small area/few individuals (<10%) no or imperceptible deterioration low

Response (conservation actions taken for the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Protected areas Management plan Other action Result
Some of site covered (10-49%) No management plan exists but the management planning process has begun Some limited conservation initiatives are in place low
