Methodological sheet of the indicator available for the Autonomous Community of the Basque Country.
| Available indicator |
Proportion of terrestrial key biodiversity areas covered by protected areas |
|---|---|
| Target |
15.1 By 2020, ensure the conservation, restoration and sustainable use of terrestrial and inland freshwater ecosystems and their services, in particular forests, wetlands, mountains and drylands, in line with obligations under international agreements |
| Goal |
15- Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss |
| Definition |
Percentage of important sites for terrestrial and freshwater biodiversity (those that contribute significantly to the global persistence of biodiversity) that are covered by protected areas |
| Theoretical formula |
\[PKBA_{terrestrial}^{t} = \frac{APKBA_{terrestrial}^{t}}{KBA_{terrestrial}^{t}} \cdot 100\]
where: $APKBA_{terrestrial}^{t} =$ area of important sites for terrestrial and freshwater biodiversity covered by protected areas in year $t$ $KBA_{terrestrial} =$ area of important sites for terrestrial and freshwater biodiversity in year $t$ |
