| Available indicator |
Mountain key biodiversity areas covered by protected areas |
|---|---|
| Target |
15.4 By 2030, ensure the conservation of mountain ecosystems, including their biodiversity, in order to enhance their capacity to provide benefits that are essential for sustainable development |
| 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 mountain biodiversity (those that contribute significantly to the overall persistence of biodiversity) that are covered by protected areas |
| Theoretical formula |
\[PKBA_{mountain}^{t} = \frac{APKBA_{mountain}^{t}}{KBA_{mountain}^{t}} \cdot 100\]
where: $APKBA_{mountain}^{t} =$ area of important sites for mountain biodiversity covered by protected areas in year $t$ $KBA_{mountain}^{t} =$ area of important sites for mountain biodiversity in year $t$ |
