Fig. 3: Conservation targets reached and ecosystem services conserved, in a series of prioritisations based on incremental area budgets.
From: Priority areas to protect mangroves and maximise ecosystem services
For incremental area budgets (i.e., increasing the area of mangroves protected): (a, c) Conservation targets reached (%) in a spatial prioritisation optimised for biodiversity alone or for both biodiversity and ecosystem services; and (b, d) the percentage of the total of each ecosystem service protected. Prioritisations (a, b) optimise the selection considering all mangrove areas; (c, d) add the selection to the current system of strictly protected areas (13.5% of mangrove area, indicated by a dashed vertical line) and (e, f) add the selection to the current system of all protected areas (43% of mangrove areas, indicated by a dashed vertical line).
