BCFRC CENTER
The Biodiversity Conservation & Fisheries Research Center (BCFRC) is affiliated of the Abdul Quadir International University, Bangladesh. This center is working on habitat (River, Lake, Ocean) and aquatic biota from interacting threatening processes. In particular, for characteristic habitat (River, Lake, Ocean) and aquatic biota (Crustacean, Fish, Amphibians, Molluscs, Mammal), which are often overlooked but are very abundant globally, supporting exceptionally high biodiversity. Identified aquatic threat (dam), pollutants and their impact on environment and human. BCFRC Centre for Training in Multiple Stressor Impacts on Wetland Wildscapes.
