मियावाकी शैली में विकसित किए जा रहे उद्यान NACIN पालसमुद्रम परिसर में जैव विविधता सुनिश्चित करेंगे और प्राकृतिक वनों की जटिलता एवं लचीलापन को पुनः स्थापित करेंगे।

स्थानीय प्रजातियों के विविध पौधों का रोपण पारिस्थितिक संतुलन बनाए रखता है, मिट्टी की सेहत को बेहतर बनाता है, परागण करने वाले जीवों और वन्यजीवों को सहारा देता है और पूरे वन क्षेत्र की स्थिरता को बढ़ाता है।

विभिन्न गति से बढ़ने वाली और अलग-अलग छत्र संरचना वाली प्रजातियां एक प्राकृतिक परत संरचना (stratification) बनाती हैं, जिससे छांव जल्दी तैयार होती है और वन की दीर्घकालिक टिकाऊ प्रकृति सुनिश्चित होती है। जैव विविधता की यह विशेषता कीटों, बीमारियों या जलवायु परिवर्तन के कारण होने वाली विफलता के खतरे को भी कम करती है।

ये हरित क्षेत्र न केवल स्थानीय वनस्पतियों और जीवों के संरक्षण में योगदान देंगे, बल्कि NACIN पालसमुद्रम परिसर में एक समरस, पर्यावरण-संतुलित वातावरण के निर्माण की प्रतिबद्धता को भी दर्शाएंगे।
