major driver of biodiversity loss. This study evaluated these effects via international food trade, calculating estimates of species loss for 170 crops and 184 countries. The results show that the majority of biodiversity loss is due to growing crops for domestic consumption but that industrialised countries can

Introduction — accounting for biodiversity loss Ecosystem accounting and the cost of biodiversity losses Ecosystem services and biodiversity loss The way people are thinking about biodiversity is changing. Until recently, arguments in support of the conservation of species and habitats were based primarily on issues such as their evolutionary

This loss of domi-nant plant species was associated with twice as great a loss of productivity per lost species than occurred with random species loss in a nearby biodiversity experiment. Thus, although chronic nitrogen enrichment initially increased productivity, it also led to loss of plant species, including initially dominant species, which

Habitat loss accurately predicts species loss in regions where the habitat loss occurred a long time ago (Dial 1994; Pimm & Askins 1995). However, there is a time lag between habitat loss and species loss (Brooks et al. 1999 a). For well-known taxa, one can detect this time lag in the form of population declines toward extinc-tion. Such ...

It results from the removal of trees without sufficient replacement, which leads to a reduction in habitat, biodiversity as well as wood and quality of life. (FAO, 2011) defines deforestation as the long- term reduction of the tree canopy cover below the minimum 10 percent threshold. (UNFCCC,2006 ) description has a different threshold, in which deforestation is defined as a measurable ...

that lives within 37 miles of the sea or ocean, and loss of biodiversity. Further human actions, such as deforestation, deep-ocean fishing, overharvesting of plant and animal species, as well as war and conflicts, also contribute to biodiversity loss. Fast facts By 2025, half of the world’s population will be living in water-stressed areas.

Increasing incentive does not consistently lead to an increase in biodiversity, and can even lead . to biodiversity loss (Scenario B). This is because some farming activities are embedded within
