行政院農業委員會特有生物研究保育中心(以下簡稱特生中心)運用「臺灣繁殖鳥類大調查(Taiwan Breeding Bird Survey)」的資料,分析100種繁殖鳥於2011年至2019年間的數量變化趨勢,並建置「臺灣森林鳥類指標」及「臺灣農地鳥類指標」兩項國家級指標。趨勢和指標將會定期更新,做為監測臺灣繁殖鳥類生存狀態及保育成效的重要儀表板。同時也是臺灣反映在2030年前實現聯合國生物多樣性公約目標「自然正成長(Nature-Positive)」。此舉為亞洲第二個發布複合物種指標的國家,已開放全文刊登於國際學術期刊「生態指標(Ecological Indicators)」

The Taiwan Endemic Species Research Institute (TESRI) under the Council of Agriculture, Executive Yuan analyzed data from the Taiwan Breeding Bird Survey to understand population trends for 100 species of breeding birds during the period of 2011 to 2019. In doing so, two national indicators for birds were established, one for Taiwan's forest birds and one for Taiwan's farmland birds.

Tainan City's Chiku and Jiangjun salt pan wetlands are vital stopover and wintering sites for migratory birds. Due to the critical importance of these areas, six non-governmental organizations formed the Chiku and Jiangjun Salt Pan Wetlands Restoration Alliance and jointly adopted 1,605 ha of salt pans from Taiwan's National Property Administration in April 2022. On January 7th, 2023, members of the alliance gathered in the adopted land to conduct bird surveys as part of the Taiwan New Year Bird Count, a citizen science driven event which aims to monitor the population and trends of Taiwan's wintering avifauna. Nearly 20,000 individuals from a total of 85 species were recorded, including globally threatened species such as the Black-faced Spoonbill.

The application of photovoltaic systems to aquaculture farms (hereinafter referred to as Aqua-PV) has been actively promoted by the Executive Yuan as an important means of accelerating Taiwan's energy transformation. While Aqua-PV in open fields is done using ground-mounted systems with a maximum of 40% ground-coverage ratio, indoor Aqua-PV is done using rooftop systems which permit a much higher PV coverage ratio of 80%. Although indoor Aqua-PV seems more profitable, indoor fish farming is more technologically demanding as it requires 24-hour water quality treatment. Because of this, solar developers need to bring in new teams or cooperate with bigger fish farming businesses to set up aquaculture systems. Yet solar developers and investors believe that indoor Aqua-PV projects are more easily controlled and a less risky business venture compared with outdoor projects where there is more necessity to deal with traditional fish farming practices and management styles. Therefore, although the cost per unit area of ​​indoor projects is much higher than that of outdoor projects, it is now the favored method. Last month, one project secured a massive syndicated loan totaling NTD$8.88 billion (USD$291.3 million) from several banks, setting a record for the highest amount ever provided for an Aqua-PV project in Taiwan. Compared with traditional aquaculture in open fields, indoor projects would permanently alter the land use and should be permitted only after special consideration. However, there is currently a lack of relevant environmental and social regulations and little to no management guidelines for indoor Aqua-PV. Without proper action now, large-scale development of indoor Aqua-PV projects will likely get out of control, resulting in serious environmental degradation and aquaculture problems.
