Species-level Effects of Human Footprint
This data are estimates of the total effects of human footprint categories on species. It includes total population effect (area of rectangle) and the "unit-effect" (y-axis value) for human footprint categories (columns) per species (rows). The human footprint percentage (x-axis value) is included in the downloadable file.

Human Activities Alter Native Habitats
Human activities alter native habitat. The impact of that activity on a species is determined by three factors: 1) how much area the footprint occupies; 2) how strongly—positively or negatively—the species responds to a footprint; and 3) how much of the footprint is in higher- versus lower-quality habitat for the species. For example, a species that lives in old upland forest may be more affected by the forestry sector than the energy sector, because forestry focuses on those older merchantable stands.
