Nakdong River Estuary Wetlands.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] An "ecological experience video" documenting the ecology of the Nakdong River Estuary and Eulsukdo Wetlands is being produced.

The Nakdong River Estuary Eco Center under the Nakdong River Management Headquarters of Busan City announced on the 13th that natural environment interpreters and university student supporters will participate to capture vivid experiences of the wetlands on video to increase citizens' interest and understanding.

The Nakdong River Management Headquarters planned this ecological experience video so that citizens can safely experience the Nakdong River Estuary and Eulsukdo area "non-face-to-face online" as experience programs were suspended due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.

The ecological experience videos, themed on the nature and organisms of the Nakdong River Estuary and Eulsukdo, will be uploaded on the Nakdong River Estuary Eco Center website and the official YouTube channel "Eco Center TV" every 2nd and 4th Monday of each month from the 13th through December.

The main content includes one bird-related video (winter migratory bird watching and feeding), two mudflat videos (Let's learn about mudflats; Let's find organisms in the rocky intertidal zone), two insect videos (Learning about wriggling caterpillars; Autumn grasshopper stories), three plant videos (Plants live underwater too; Ah! Such plants in the estuary~; Growing migratory bird feed crops), and three wetland videos (Tips for using Eulsukdo; Viewing the Nakdong River Estuary from Amisan Mountain; Exploring Eulsukdo waterways).

The Nakdong River Estuary is a brackish water area where sea and freshwater meet, serving as a habitat and breeding ground for diverse organisms and is designated as a wetland protection area, one of Korea's major estuarine wetlands. Eulsukdo is a sandy island meaning "many birds and clear water," an artificial wetland restored from a damaged area. The Nakdong River lower stream migratory bird habitat is designated as Natural Monument No. 179 and is a globally significant migratory bird protection area, as well as an ecotourism area designated by the Ministry of Environment.

Yeo Un-cheol, head of the Nakdong River Management Headquarters in Busan, said, "I hope this will be a time to experience the beautiful natural environment of the Nakdong River Estuary and Eulsukdo through videos and gain both enjoyment and knowledge."
