Global pesticide pollution risk data sets

Three global maps are included in this data
set: the first is the pesticide risk scores map showing the exposure of
agricultural land to pesticide pollution, the second is the active ingredient counts
map quantifying the number of active ingredients posing pollution risk to
agricultural land and showing the exposure of environment to pesticide mixtures,
and the third is the regions of concern map identifying areas susceptible to
pesticide pollution.

A
zip folder containing an example of risk score calculation is attached together
with this data set. Details of the methods used to produce these maps and the
tabulated data can be found in Tang F.H.M, Lenzen M., McBratney A., and Maggi
F. (2021). Risk of pesticide pollution at the global
scale, Nature Geoscience.
