The NDA provides a wide range of both precise but broad definitions for the application of the Act. Biological diversity is defined broadly as "ecosystem and species variability and intra-species genetic variability, and the ecological relationships between ecosystem components" which are related to biological, geological and landscape diversity' defined as all diversity that is not largely a result of human interference.324 Habitat type is defined as a homogeneous environment including all plants and animal life and environmental factors that operate there, or special types of natural features such as ponds, habitat islands, and special types of geological features,325 and an 'area with specific ecological functions' as one that fulfils an ecological function for a species, such as a spawning, nursery or larval drift area, migration route, feeding , moulting or overnighting area, display ground or mating area, breeding area, overwintering area or habitat, the delimitation of which may change over time.326 The utilization of such a wide range of broadly applicable definitions aims to be mutually supportive of the equally broad objective.
