Item Information

snippet: This global spatial layer of contextual intactness aims to identify priority areas around the world where protection and management will best promote biodiversity persistence. This layer was derived by integrating both the condition of each focal location and the condition of all other locations expected to have supported shared species with the focal location prior to any habitat degradation. The contextual intactness of each location (grid cell) is the proportion of habitat predicted to have once supported a similar assemblage of species but is now in worse condition than the focal location. This was derived using the BILBI global biodiversity assessment system, by integrating: (1) an updated map of the terrestrial human footprint on natural systems, and; (2) generalized dissimilarity models of species assemblage turnover for terrestrial vertebrates, invertebrates, and plants.
