The added value of the Habitats Directive: is biodiversity better protected since the Directive entered into force?
2014
Assessing the status of biodiversity is a big challenge, since biodiversity is not
comparable to a chemical substance that (like ozone concentrations in a city) can
be easily measured in real time. The defi nition adopted by the Convention on
Biological Diversity shows how complex biodiversity is:Biological diversity means the variability among living organisms from all
sources including, inter alia, terrestrial, marine and other aquatic ecosystems
and the ecological complexes of which they are part; this includes diversity
within species, between species and of ecosystems.1
