Explanation:

Biosphere reserves are areas of terrestrial and coastal ecosystems promoting solutions to reconcile the conservation of biodiversity with its sustainable use. Biosphere Reserve is declared to conserve some representative ecosystems as a whole for long-term. Each Biosphere Reserve is intended to contribute to the conservation of landscapes, ecosystems, species and genetic variation; Boundaries of a national park and biosphere reserve are determined by legislation.
