Commodity-driven deforestation, associated carbon emissions and trade 2001-2022

<p><span>This dataset contains estimates of commodity-driven deforestation and associated carbon emissions for the period 2001-2022, estimated by the Deforestation Driver and Carbon Emission (DeDuCE) model (Singh &amp; Persson 2024), which combines remote sensing data on forest loss and land-use with agricultural statistics to identify and attribute deforestation across the world to expansion of cropland, pastures and forest plantation, and the commodities produced on this land. This also contains data on deforestation embodied in the production, exports, imports, and consumption of agricultural and forestry commodities by country, year, and commodity for the time period 2005-2022 derived using physical and monetary trade models. The data is an update of the results presented in Pendrill et al. (2022) and the differences between the two datasets are detailed in the explainer available here.</span></p>

Ecological filtering shapes the impacts of agricultural deforestation on biodiversity

<p>This dataset and associated code are for the manuscript titled "Ecological filtering shapes the impacts of agricultural deforestation on biodiversity", which is due to be published in the journal Nature Ecology &amp; Evolution (accepted on September 20, 2023). The abstract of this manuscript is as follows:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The biodiversity impacts of agricultural deforestation vary widely across regions. Previous efforts to explain this variation have focused exclusively on the landscape features and management regimes of agricultural systems, neglecting the potentially critical role of ecological filtering in shaping deforestation tolerance of extant species assemblages at large geographical scales via selection for functional traits. Here we provide a large-scale test of this role using a global database of species abundance ratios between matched agricultural and native forest sites that comprises 71 avian assemblages reported in 44 primary studies, and a companion database of ten functional traits for all 2,647 species involved. Using meta-analytic, phylogenetic, and multivariate methods, we show that beyond agricultural features, filtering by the extent of natural environmental variability and the severity of historical anthropogenic deforestation shapes the varying deforestation impacts across species assemblages. For assemblages under greater environmental variability – proxied by drier and more seasonal climates under greater disturbance regime – and longer deforestation histories, filtering has attenuated the negative impacts of current deforestation by selecting for functional traits linked to stronger deforestation tolerance. Our study provides a heretofore largely missing piece of knowledge in understanding and managing the biodiversity consequences of deforestation by agricultural deforestation.</p>

Data and script: Catchment scale deforestation increases the uniqueness of subtropical stream communities

<p>These are datasets&nbsp;on benthic diatom and insect communities sampled&nbsp;in 100 streams along a gradient of land use intensification, ranging from streams in pristine forests to agricultural catchments in southeast subtropical Brazil.&nbsp;Data also include information on instream&nbsp;and land-use&nbsp;variables.</p> <p>In addition to the datasets,&nbsp;we also provide the R codes used to investigate&nbsp;whether compositional uniqueness (LCBD) and species contribution to&nbsp;beta diversity (SCBD) of stream diatoms and insects can be predicted by instream and land-use characteristics and by species traits and taxonomic relatedness, respectively.&nbsp;</p>

Dataset from: 'Tropical deforestation accelerates local warming and loss of safe outdoor working hours'

<p>Abstract:</p> <p>&#39;Climate change has increased heat exposure in many parts of the tropics, negatively impacting outdoor worker productivity and health. Although it is known that tropical deforestation causes local warming, the extent to which this warming affects people across the tropics is unknown. Here, we combine worker health guidelines with satellite, reanalysis, and population data to investigate how increases in local temperatures associated with recent deforestation (2003-2018) affects outdoor working conditions across low-latitude countries, and how future global climate change will magnify heat exposure for people in deforested areas. We find that the local warming associated with just 15 years of deforestation has caused losses in safe thermal working conditions for 2.8 million outdoor workers. We also show recent large-scale forest loss caused particularly large impacts on populations in locations such as the Brazilian states of Mato Grosso and Par&aacute;. Future global warming and additional forest loss will magnify these impacts.&#39;</p>

Uncovering major types of deforestation frontiers across the world's tropical dry woodlands

<p>These&nbsp;datasets provide maps of deforestation frontier classsification into three themed typologies (severity, spatio temporal patterns and development stage)&nbsp;and archetypes of major frontier patterns. We do this&nbsp;for tropical dry woodland worldwide, for the period of 2000 to&nbsp;2020,&nbsp;at ~3-km spatial resolution (Coordinate System: WGS_1984_Mollweide, float format). Datasets used for this analysis are publicly available, forest cover and loss data are available at: https://data.globalforestwatch.org/. Deforestation frontiers metrics were calculated and typologies developed in RStudio 1.3.1056. We share the code used to develop frontier metrics, frontier typologies, and archetypes, together with a sample dataset summarized from the originally publicly available dataset.</p> <p>Further details of the datasets can be found in Buchadas et. al. (2022):&nbsp;https://doi.org/10.1038/s41893-022-00886-9&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>For further questions or issues with the datasets, please contact Ana Buchadas at ana.buchadas@geo.hu-berlin.de.</p>

Reservoir water quality deterioration due to deforestation emphasizes the indirect effects of global change

<p><strong>This repository contains the dataset linked to&nbsp;the following publication:</strong></p> <p><strong>Article title:</strong> Reservoir water quality deterioration due to deforestation emphasizes the indirect effects of global change</p> <p><strong>Journal title: </strong>Water Research</p> <p><strong>Article Number: </strong>WR_118721</p> <p><strong>doi: </strong>https://doi.org/10.1016/j.watres.2022.118721</p> <p><strong>Abstract: </strong>Deforestation is currently a widespread phenomenon and a growing environmental concern in the era of rapid climate change. In temperate regions, it is challenging to quantify the impacts of deforestation on the catchment dynamics and downstream aquatic ecosystems such as reservoirs and disentangle these from direct climate change impacts, let alone project future changes to inform management. Here, we tackled this issue by investigating a unique catchment-reservoir system with two reservoirs in distinct trophic states (meso‑ and eutrophic), both of which drain into the largest drinking water reservoir in Germany. Due to the prolonged droughts in 2015&ndash;2018, the catchment of the mesotrophic reservoir lost an unprecedented area of forest (exponential increase since 2015 and ca. 17.1% loss in 2020 alone). We coupled catchment nutrient exports (HYPE) and reservoir ecosystem dynamics (GOTM-WET) models using a process-based modeling approach. The coupled model was validated with datasets spanning periods of rapid deforestation, which makes our future projections highly robust. Results show that in a short-term time scale (by 2035), increasing nutrient flux from the catchment due to vast deforestation (80% loss) can turn the mesotrophic reservoir into a eutrophic state as its counterpart. Our results emphasize the more prominent impacts of deforestation than the direct impact of climate warming in impairment of water quality and ecological services to downstream aquatic ecosystems. Therefore, we propose to evaluate the impact of climate change on temperate reservoirs by incorporating a time scale-dependent context, highlighting the indirect impact of deforestation in the short-term scale. In the long-term scale (e.g. to 2100), a guiding hypothesis for future research may be that indirect effects (e.g., as mediated by catchment dynamics) are as important as the direct effects of climate warming on aquatic ecosystems.<br> &nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Data description</strong><br> by Xiangzhen Kong (xiangzhen.kong@ufz.de; xzkong@niglas.ac.cn)<br> 2022-06-20</p> <p>1.

Global mining deforestation footprint data from 2000 to 2019

<p>The data in this repository is available under the Open Database License: http://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1.0/. Any rights in individual contents of the database are licensed under the Database Contents License: http://opendatacommons.org/licenses/dbcl/1.0/<br><br>This repository includes two datasets. The first is a collection of polygons covering mines globally and the associated forest cover loss from 2000 to 2019. The polygons were derived by merging the "global-scale mining polygons version 2" (Maus et al., 2022) and mining and quarry polygon features extracted from the OpenStreetMap database (OpenStreetMap contributors, 2017). To remove double counting of areas the overlaps between the datasets were resolved by uniting intersecting features into single polygon features, i.e. keeping only the external borders of intersecting features. A random visual check was conducted, and a few small manual editing of polygons was performed where errors were identified.</p> <p>The resulting dataset is encoded as a Geopackage in the file 'global_mining_polygons.gpkg'. The GeoPackage includes a single layer with 192,584 entries called 'mining_polygons' with the following attributes:</p> <ul> <li><em>id&lt;string&gt;</em> unique feature identifier</li> <li><em>isoa3&lt;string&gt;</em> ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country codes</li> <li><em>country&lt;string&gt;</em> country names</li> <li><em>area&lt;double&gt;</em> area of the polygon in squared kilometres</li> <li><em>geom&lt;polygon&gt;</em> the geometry of the features in geographical coordinates WGS84</li> </ul> <p>The second dataset provides annual time series of global tree cover loss within mines from 2000 to 2019, covering all polygons in the above dataset. The area of tree cover loss for each polygon was calculated from the Global Forest Change database (Hansen et al., 2013). Each polygon also has additional string attributes with biomes derived from&nbsp;<em>Ecoregions 2017&nbsp;<sup>&copy; Resolve&nbsp;</sup></em>(Dinerstein et al., 2017) and the level of protection derived from The World Database on Protected Areas (UNEP-WCMC and IUCN, 2022).</p> <p>This dataset is encoded in CSV format in the file 'global_mining_forest_loss.csv', which includes 416,412 entries and 53 variables, such that:</p> <ul> <li><em>id&lt;string&gt;</em> unique feature identifier</li> <li><em>id_hcluster&lt;string&gt;</em> unique feature identifier</li> <li><em>list_of_commodities&lt;string&gt;</em> a comma-separated list of commodities</li> <li><em>isoa3&lt;string&gt;</em> ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country codes</li> <li><em>country&lt;string&gt;</em> country names</li> <li>ecoregion<em>&lt;string&gt;</em> ecoregion name</li> <li><em>biome&lt;string&gt;</em> biome name</li> <li><em>year&lt;numeric&gt;</em> the year</li> <li>area_forest_loss_XXX_YYY&lt;double&gt; the area of forest cover loss within a polygon per year in squared kilometres.</li> </ul> <p>The values of tree cover loss are disaggregated per initial percentage of tree cover (XXX) and per protection level (YYY).</p> <ul> <li>XXX can take one of: <ul> <li>000: total tree cover loss independently from the initial tree cover</li> <li>025: tree cover loss on pixels with initial tree cover between 0 and 25%</li> <li>050: tree cover loss on pixels with initial tree cover between 25 and 50%</li> <li>075: tree cover loss on pixels with initial tree cover between 50 and 75%</li> <li>100: tree cover loss on pixels with initial tree cover between 75 and 100%</li> </ul> </li> <li>YYY can take one of: <ul> <li>la: tree cover loss within strict nature reserve</li> <li>Ib: tree cover loss within wilderness area</li> <li>II: tree cover loss within national park</li> <li>III: tree cover loss within natural monument or feature</li> <li>IV: tree cover loss within habitat/species management area</li> <li>V: tree cover loss within protected landscape/seascape</li> <li>VI: tree cover loss within PA with sustainable use of natural resources</li> <li>p: tree cover loss within any type of protection, including not applicable, not assigned, or not reported</li> <li>none: when YYY is omitted, total tree cover loss within the polygon</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p>For details about the protection levels definition see the UNEP-WCMC and IUCN (2022).

Higher temperature variability in deforested mountain regions impacts the competitive advantage of nocturnal species

<p>Deforestation is a major contributor to biodiversity loss, yet the impact of deforestation on daily microclimate variability and its implications for species with different daily activity patterns remain poorly understood. Using a recently developed microclimate model, we investigated the effects of deforestation on the daily temperature range (DTR) in low-elevation tropical areas and high-elevation temperate areas. Our results show that shade loss due to deforestation substantially increases DTR in these areas, suggesting a potential impact on species interactions. To test this hypothesis, we studied the competitive interactions between nocturnal burying beetles and all-day active blowfly maggots in forested and deforested habitats in Taiwan. We show that deforestation leads to increased DTR at higher elevations, which enhances the competitiveness of blowfly maggots during the day and leads to a higher failure rate of carcass burial by the beetles at night. Thus, deforestation-induced temperature variability not only modulates exploitative competition between species with different daily activity patterns but also likely exacerbates the negative impacts of climate change on nocturnal organisms. Our study highlights the need to protect forests, especially in areas where deforestation can greatly alter temperature variability, in order to prevent potential adverse effects on species interactions and their ecological functions.</p>
