Threats of land use to the global diversity of vascular plants

Inputs, outputs, and scripts used in the model that supports the findings of the article \"Threats of Land Use to the Global Diversity of Vascular Plants\". We first calculated the extinction threat at ecoregion level using the countryside species-area model. Next, we allocated the regional extinction threats to land use. Finally, we calculated the global extinction threat per ecoregion and land use.
In this repository, you will find the inputs necessary to run the model, the R scripts to run the model, and the outputs of the model., The raw data that support the findings of this study are openly available at https://www.globio.info/globio-data-downloads; https://luh.umd.edu/data.shtml; https://www.gbif.org/; https://www.worldwildlife.org/publications/ecoregions-map; https://glonaf.org/; Gallego-Zamorano et al.

In this repository, you can find the processed data used as inputs for the model. These inputs are stored in .rds files that can be read in R.

The land use classes and area derived from GLOBIO land use map:

**land_class_area_ecoregions_globio4.rds**
**GLOBIO4_LU_legend_harmonized.rds**

```
- Columns of land_class_area_ecoregions_globio4.rds:
- zone and land_use_id: code that indicates the land use type
- land_use: label of land use type
- ecoregion: code that indicates ecoregion
- area_km2: area of a given land use type in a given ecoregion in km2
- Columns of GLOBIO4_LU_legend_harmonized.rds:
- land_use: label indicate a land use type
- land_use_id: identification code of a land use type that correspondes to a label
```
