However, we know little about the future global conflict risk hotspots between biodiversity and food security at both country and Biodiversity Hotspots (BHs) levels. First we calculated land use intensity index (LUII) based on future land use simulation, incorporated data on species richness(including birds, mammals and amphibians) and introduced the Global Food Security Index (GFSI). Then we used local indicators of spatial association (LISA) and bivariate choropleth map to identify the future global conflict risk hotspots between biodiversity conservation and food security. These include 10 countries (including Congo (Kinshasa), Sierra Leone, Malawi, Togo, Zambia, Angola, Guinea, Nigeria, Laos, Cambodia) and 7 BHs (Eastern Afromontane, Guinean Forests of West Africa, Horn of Africa, Indo-Burma, Mediterranean Basin, Maputaland-Pondoland-Albany and Tropical Andes). Special attention needs to be paid to these hotspots to balance biodiversity conservation and food security. date: 2022-04 date_type: published publisher: Elsevier BV official_url: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gecco.2022.e02036 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2018633 doi: 10.1016/j.gecco.2022.e02036 lyricists_name: Zhao, Jianqiao lyricists_id: JZHBH91 actors_name: Zhao, Jianqiao actors_id: JZHBH91 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: Global Ecology and Conservation volume: 34 article_number: e02036 issn: 2351-9894 citation: Zhao, Jianqiao; Cao, Yue; Yu, Le; Liu, Xiaoping; Yang, Rui; Gong, Peng; (2022) Future global conflict risk hotspots between biodiversity conservation and food security: 10 countries and 7 Biodiversity Hotspots.
