Seasonal flooding wetlands: Flooded forest Floodplain marshes and swamps Floodplain grasslands Peat lands 2. Permanently flooded lakes and ponds: 3. Man made/regulated: Reservoirs Rice fields Fish ponds and aquaculture Urban wetland 4. Rivers: River/streams River /streams with pools and rapids 5. Coastal and marine wetlands Saline lakes/ponds/marsh/swamp Mangrove forest

3 Short listed sites by category 5 Wetland Type Cambodia Lao PDR Thailand Vietnam 1. Seasonal flooding wetlands: Flooded forest Prek Toal (Siphandone (mainstream) GootPeng (PakMun) (Tram Chim) Stung Treng, Songkram river and floodplain (U Minh Thuong) Boeung Chhmar Boeung Prang Floodplain marshes and swamps Xe Bang Fai, That Luang Marsh Tram Chim Lo Go Sa Mat Boeung Chhmar Prek Toal Boeung Prang Floodplain grasslands (Xe Champhone) (Xe Bang Fai) Nong Bong Kai, Bung Khong Long Goot Ting marshland (Songkram river and floodplain) (Kaeng La Wa) (Huai Chorakhe Mak Reservoir) (Goot Peng (Pak Mun) (Goot Ting marshland) (Huai Chorakhe Mak Reservoir) (Tram Chim) (Lo Go Sa Mat) Peat lands U Minh Thuong Selection criteria for working session 6 1. Biodiversity significance 2. Fulfilling essential human uses 3. Rareness and uniqueness 4. Importance to biome maintenance 5. Availability of information 6. Under conservation management

4 7 Expert working groups: approach to site selection: objective For the short-list of approx 20 regional wetland sites, each national working group should: 1) review the short-listing and rank each potential site identified against a uniform set of criteria 2) advise on which two sites are of highest priority against the given selection criteria 3) Provide justification for your ranking Wetlands selection matrix 8 SELECTION CRITERIA SHORT LISTED (score each criteria from 0 to 5) WETLANDS 1. biodiversity significance 2. fulfilling an essential human uses 3. Rareness and uniqueness 4. Importance to biome maintenance 5. Availability 6. under of information conservation management Total wetland score (6 to 30) RANK 0 example total score = (A+B+C+D+E+F)/ A B C D E F 2 1 Tram Chim 2 U Minh Thuong 3 Lo Go Sa Mat 4 Lak Lake 5 Ca Mau Each expert to score individual wetlands against the 6 criteria (scale 1to 5) Calculate the average score for the wetland for each criteria (A, B, C, D, E, F) and cumulative for across the 6 criteria Rank wetlands according to cumulative score 6????

5 Steps for matrix completion 9 1. Review the shortlist 2. Familiarise yourselves with the selection criteria: 3. Individual scores: Use a scale of 1 to 5 ( low to high ). 4. Consolidate the group average: calculate an average score 5. Cumulative score: add averages to get a total score 6. Rank sites according to their score 7. Justification: discuss in the group reasons for the ranking 8. Reporting: Prepare group presentation Working session: other guidance 10 45mins for working session 15min presentation for reporting back to plenary Use the presentation template for reporting Provide justification for very high scores and very low scores
