SCIENTIFIC AND EXPERT PROJECTS

Inventory of flora and fauna is a priority in the work of the expert service, as it is the basis for a higher quality management in this area. Also, through new knowledge about the natural and cultural values of this area a higher quality and more efficient protection measures are planned, with the aim of preserving the fundamental values of the park, primarily biological and landscape diversity on land and sea. In cooperation with scientific institutions, individuals and sponsors, the Public institution is planning and conducting scientific researches each year. Part of the project is still in progress.
