calcConservationPriorities

Description

Function calculates land area in conservation priority areas that was unprotected in 2020 (WDPA).

Usage

calcConservationPriorities(
  consvBaseYear = "y1750",
  cells = "lpjcell",
  nclasses = "seven"
)

Arguments

consvBaseYear

Reference year for land conservation. Chosing "y1750", for instance, means that the reference land use is based on the year 1750 ('pre-industrial') so land use can be restored to the pre-industrial state in conservation priority areas. Any year available in the LUH2v2 data set can be chosen. Historic land use in the LUH2v2 data is based on the HYDE data base. The choice "y2020" provides a special case, in which reference land use is based on the 2020 ESA CCI LULC map, derived at a spatial resolution of 300 x 300 Meter.

cells

number of cells of landmask (select "magpiecell" for 59199 cells or "lpjcell" for 67420 cells)

nclasses

Options are either "seven" or "nine".

  • "seven" separates primary and secondary forest and includes "crop", "past", "forestry", "primforest", "secdforest", "urban" and "other"

  • "nine" adds the separation of pasture and rangelands, as well as a differentiation of primary and secondary non-forest vegetation and therefore returns "crop", "past", "range", "forestry", "primforest", "secdforest", "urban", "primother" and "secdother"

Value

magpie object in cellular resolution with different protection options in conservation priority areas
