Abstract High numbers of threatened species might be expected to occur where overall richness is also high; however, this explains only a proportion the global variation in richness. Understanding why many areas have more or fewer than would given their richness, and whether that consistent across taxa, essential for identifying conservation priorities. Here, we show that, after controlling environmental factors, such as temperature insularity, are typically important human impacts explaining spatial Human impacts, nevertheless, an role, with relationships varying between vertebrate groups zoogeographic regions. provides framework establishing priorities, those regions inherently vulnerable effects threatening processes, forecasting how distributed changing world.

No waters left untouched We are increasingly aware of human impacts on biodiversity across our planet, especially in terrestrial and marine systems. know less about fresh waters, including large rivers. Su et al. looked such systems globally, focusing several key measures fish biodiversity. They found that half all river have been heavily affected by activities, with only very tropical basins receiving the lowest levels change. Fragmentation non-native species also led to homogenization rivers, many now containing similar fewer specialized lineages. Science , this issue p. 835

Habitat loss and fragmentation due to human activities is the leading cause of biodiversity ecosystem services. Protected areas are primary response this challenge cornerstone conservation efforts. Roughly 15% land currently protected although there momentum dramatically raise area targets towards 50%. But, how much remains in a natural state? We answer critical question by using open-access, frequently updated data sets on terrestrial impacts create new categorical map global influence ('Low Impact Areas') at 1 km2 resolution. found that 56% surface, minus permanent ice snow, has low impact. This suggests increased could be met minimally impacted people, substantial variation across ecoregions biomes. While habitat well documented, differences rates between biomes received little attention. Low Areas uniquely enabled us calculate biomes, we compared these an idealized globe with no human-caused fragmentation. The heavily fragmented, compromised reduced patch size core area, exposed edge effects. Tropical dry forests temperate grasslands world's most demonstrate when considered addition loss, species, ecosystems associated services worse condition than previously reported.

Ambitious conservation efforts are needed to stop the global biodiversity crisis. In this study, we estimate minimum land area secure important areas, ecologically intact and optimal locations for representation of species ranges ecoregions. We discover that at least 64 million square kilometers (44% terrestrial area) would require attention (ranging from protected areas land-use policies) meet goal. More than 1.8 billion people live on these lands, so responses promote autonomy, self-determination, equity, sustainable management safeguarding essential. Spatially explicit scenarios suggest 1.3 is risk being converted intensive human uses by 2030, which requires immediate attention. However, a sevenfold difference exists between amount habitat in optimistic pessimistic scenarios, highlighting an opportunity avert Appropriate targets Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework encourage identified contribute substantially biodiversity.

Abstract Area-based conservation is essential to safeguard nature’s diversity. In view of expanding human land use, increasing climate change and unmet targets, area-based requires efficiency effectiveness more than ever. this review, I identify relate pressing challenges promising opportunities for effective efficient protected area governance management, enhance research, decision-making capacity building in under uncertain future developments. reveal that management particularly challenged by change, invasive species, social, political economic limitations. Protected often lacks the continuous availability data on current states trends nature threats. Biocultural conservation, climate-smart biosecurity approaches help overcome induced needs, respectively. Economic valuation shifts funding priorities can boost efficiency. In-situ monitoring techniques, remote sensing open infrastructures fill information gaps planning management. Moreover, adaptive an auspicious concept framework systematic ensure enduring areas despite unpredictable Post-2020 international biodiversity sustainable development goals could be met earlier if were effective. consequently conclude with need a global system support synthesizing at local level.
