No lake left behind: Lake protection in the continental US (github repository)

This is a snapshot of a github repository (https://github.com/cont-limno/FreshwaterConservation) associated with a manuscript on representation of lakes in US protected areas with respect to international conservation targets. In 2010, the Convention on Biological Diversity stated that by 2020 "at least 17 percent of terrestrial and inland water areas, and 10 percent of coastal and marine areas, especially areas of particular importance for biodiversity and ecosystem services, are conserved through effectively and equitably managed, ecologically representative and well connected systems of protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures, and integrated into the wider landscapes and seascapes."
