The Asian water monitor is semiaquatic and opportunistic; it inhabits a variety of natural habitats though predominantly resides in primary forests and mangrove swamps. It has been noted that it is not deterred from living in areas near human civilization. In fact, it has been known to adapt and thrive in agricultural areas as well as cities with canal systems, such as in Sri Lanka, where they are not hunted or persecuted. Habitats that are considered to be most important are mangrove vegetation, swamps, wetlands, and elevations below 1,000 m (3,300 ft). It does not thrive in habitats with extensive loss of natural vegetation and aquatic resources.

We don't normally use a baby monitor, but as we're away from home we thought we ought to...seems to be going well so far...am shocked TBH, he's normally up several times a night whenever we're away from home.
Transparent monitoring approaches refer to datasets, tools, and portals etc. that support countries in their current monitoring efforts with a view to land-sector CO2 emissions. A considerable amount of independent, publicly available data and platforms on land cover, land use and associated emissions sometimes leads to confusion and misinterpretation, which must be avoided. The Transparent Monitoring project has identified a set of criteria designed to overcome challenges and strengthen the effectiveness of greenhouse gas (GHG) monitoring in the land sector. The graphic shows which criteria are particularly relevant for each stakeholder group. Stakeholders are grouped into four ‘dimensions’ that help identify information tailored to their needs and roles: technology, governance, community participation and engagement, and the private sector.
