Chinese Swamp Cypress or Mai Hing Sam (Scientific name: Glyptostrobus pensilis) in Laos was listed as critically endangered species by International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List in 2006. This species occurs along streams and seasonal inundated areas at altitude between 500 \u2013 700 m ASL. Chinese Swamp Cypress population found and natural range overlaps only three nations (China, Vietnam and Laos), and within these ranges naturally occurring populations are now only known from Laos and Vietnam. The Nakai-Nam Theun National Park supports the only stand of Chinese Swamp Cypress known in Laos and after NT2 reservoir impoundment, a minimum of 468 individual trees were submerged. Therefore, the restoration project of the tree population is one of the Company\u2019s commitments of the biodiversity management. NTPC is targeted to grow at minimum of 50 individual trees to be mature. Since 2007, the germination trail was conducted in collaboration with the University of San Francisco, the National University of Laos, Nakai DAFO and the Nakai-Nam Theun National Park Protection Authority, and since then 4 seedlings were planted in Nakai Plateau and now those trees are approximately to 4 meters tall.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On 13-16 February 2021, Nam Theun 2 hosted H.E Ms Florence … <\/p>","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":5246,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-5244","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
