Fig. 1: Human pressure compromises structural connectivity of protected areas.

From: Just ten percent of the global terrestrial protected area network is structurally connected via intact land

Fig. 1

The spatial distribution of the PA estate (blue) littered throughout nonintact (yellow) and intact land (green), as ascertained using the HFP (2013). Intact land was defined as having a HFP < 4 (following Beyer et al.36). We provide six fine-scale examples, starting top left and moving clockwise, Greenland, Finland, Egypt, Papua New Guinea, Democratic Republic of Congo, and Guyana.
