Table 5. Threat magnitude rating.
Threat magnitude | Overexploitation | Overgrazing | Fire | Cotton production | Mining | Climate change |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Very high | 0.71–1 | 0.71–1 | 0.71–1 | NA | Presence of mining site (incl. surrounding areas) | One or both scenarios (RCP 4.5 a/o 8.5) predict absence |
High | 0.31–0.7 | 0.31–0.7 | 0.31–0.7 | 0.31–0.7 | Both scenarios (RCP 4.5 and 8.5) predict presence in novel regional climate conditions | |
Medium | 0.11–0.3 | 0.11–0.3 | 0.11–0.3 | 0.11–0.3 | Only scenario RCP 4.5 predicts presence in novel regional climate conditions | |
Low | 0.01–0.1 | 0.01–0.1 | 0.01–0.1 | 0.01–0.1 | Only scenario RCP 4.5 predicts presence | |
No threat | ≤ 0.01 | ≤ 0.01 | ≤ 0.01 | ≤ 0.01 | Absence of mining site | Both scenarios (RCP 4.5 and 8.5) predict presence |
