Distribution records: Reconciling biodiversity conservation and flood risk reduction: the new strategy for freshwater protected areas
<p><span><strong>Aim:</strong> </span><span>Natural disaster risk reduction (DRR) is becoming a more important function of protected area (PAs) for current and future global warming. However, biodiversity conservation and DRR have been handled separately and their interrelationship has not been explicitly addressed. This is mainly because, due of prevailing strategies and criteria for PA placement, a large proportion of PAs are currently located far from human-occupied areas, and habitats in human-occupied areas have been largely ignored as potential sites for conservation despite their high biodiversity. If intensely developed lowland areas with high flooding risk overlap with important sites for biodiversity conservation, it would be reasonable to try to harmonize biodiversity conservation and human development in human-inhabited lowland areas. Here, we examined whether extant PAs can conserve macroinvertebrate and freshwater fish biodiversity and whether human-inhabited lowland flood risk management sites might be suitable to designate as freshwater protected areas (FPAs).</span></p> <p><span><strong>Location:</strong> </span><span>Across Japan</span></p> <p><span><strong>Methods:</strong> </span><span>We examined whether extant PAs can conserve macroinvertebrate and freshwater fish biodiversity and analyzed the relationship between candidate sites for new FPAs and flood disaster risk and land use intensity at a national scale across Japan based on</span><span> distribution data for 131 freshwater fish species and 1395 macroinvertebrate species.</span></p> <p><span><strong>Results:</strong> </span><span>We found that extant PAs overlapped with approximately 30% of conservation-priority grid cells (1 km<sup>2</sup>) for both taxa. Particularly for red-listed species, only one species of freshwater fish and three species of macroinvertebrate achieved the representation target within extant PAs.</span><span> Moreover, more than 40% of candidate conservation-priority grid cells were located in </span><span>flood risk and human-occupied areas for both taxa.</span></p> <p><span><strong>Main conclusions:</strong> </span><span>Floodplain conservation provides suitable habitat for many freshwater organisms and helps control floodwaters, so establishing new FPAs in areas with high flood risk could be a win-win strategy for conserving freshwater biodiversity and enhancing ecosystem-based DRR (eco-DRR).</span></p>

Data and script:Interactive persistent effects of past land-cover and its trajectory on tropical freshwater biodiversity
<p>This is the unique dataset used to run the analysis of the manuscript: "Interactive persistent effects of past land-cover and its trajectory on tropical freshwater biodiversity". You'll find in the "corumbatai_rb.txt" the catchment's and stream's ID, forest cover (%) within reach contribution areas in 1962, 1972, 1978, 2003 and 2011. The document "aquatic_insects.txt" contains the community data (columns= taxa, rows=sites). We also provide and R code used to analyze the relationship between biodiversity and change in forest cover that occurred across five decades, including landscape trajectories of forest gain and loss.<br> <br> </p>
