Tropical mammals have lost on average 40% of their original distribution due to the combined effect of hunting pressure and human land use. Land use and hunting are two major pressures on biodiversity in the tropics. Yet, their combined impacts have not been...
Freshwater fish are highly threatened by dams that disrupt the longitudinal connectivity of rivers. Dams contribute to water security, energy supply, and flood protection but also fragment habitats of freshwater species. Yet, a global species-level assessment of...
Mapping of 295 mines representing the majority of current Cu, Au, Ag, PGE, Mo, Pb-Zn, Ni, U and diamond production. Mines are composed of features like open cut pits, water storage ponds, milling infrastructure, waste rock dumps, and tailings storage facilities that...
The paper describes the updated GLOBIO model. Scenario‐based biodiversity modelling is a powerful approach to evaluate how possible future socio‐economic developments may affect biodiversity. Here, we evaluated the changes in terrestrial biodiversity intactness,...
