Observation on data availability/gaps

Data is not available. The TNFD identifies species metrics, for population size or extinction risk, as being complementary to ecosystem metrics for assessing changes to the state of nature. PS is part of measurement of species extinction risk. It uses species-specific habitat suitability models to link land-use changes with changes in the likelihood that species populations will persist (i.e. not become extinct), based on maps of current Area of Habitat compared to historical Area of Habitat, and summed across species. It can be used to prioritise land to conserve and restore, or to assess the relative significance of impacts.
