Number of overlapping hotspots of current/recent depletion of stocks of natural
capital assets (atmosphere, water, soil and sediments, biodiversity) in terrestrial
environments. Hotspots of depletion for each asset were defined as the 20% of grid cells with
the highest depletion values. |

<div style='text-align:Left;'><p><span><span>Overlapping hotspots of depletion of stocks of natural capital asssets (atmosphere, water, soil and sediments, biodiversity) in terrestrial environments, as defined by the top 20% values of their respective depletion rates. The overlapping hotspots of natural capital depletion enable the identification of areas where human activities will be associated with higher risks of ecosystem service loss or degradation. This will, in turn, present higher risks for financial institutions investing in these areas.</span></span></p><p style='margin:0 0 0 0;'><span><span>The top 20% of values were extracted from each of the 4 single-asset depletion layers (atmosphere, water, soil and sediments, biodiversity) by using the 'Slice' tool in ArcGIS Pro with 5 output zones of equal area, and then reassigning the value of the highest slice to 1 and the other 4 slices to 0. The resulting 4 layers were summed to produce the combined hotspots layer. </span></span></p><p style='margin:0 0 0 0;'><span><span><br /></span></span></p><p style='margin:0 0 0 0;'>Atmosphere: GISS Surface temperature analysis data used for temperature anomalies (<a href='https://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/' rel='nofollow ugc' target='_blank'>https://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/</a>) and EC JRC EDGAR data for non-GHG emissions (<a href='https://edgar.jrc.ec.europa.eu/overview.php?v=50_AP' rel='nofollow ugc' target='_blank'>https://edgar.jrc.ec.europa.eu/overview.php?v=50_AP</a>).
