Primary goal From Indicator To Indicator Correlation Rationale
Biosecurity H1 Abatement of the number of invasive non-native species entering and establishing against a baseline D4 Relative abundance and distribution of widespread species Positive The H1 indicator contains 193 non-native species that are considered to be exerting a negative impact on native biodiversity.
Biosecurity H1 Abatement of the number of invasive non-native species entering and establishing against a baseline D5 Conservation status of our native species Positive The H1 indicator contains 193 non-native species that are considered to be exerting a negative impact on native biodiversity.
Biosecurity H1 Abatement of the number of invasive non-native species entering and establishing against a baseline D6 Abundance and distribution of priority species in England Positive The H1 indicator contains 193 non-native species that are considered to be exerting a negative impact on native biodiversity.
Biosecurity H1 Abatement of the number of invasive non-native species entering and establishing against a baseline D7 Species supporting ecosystem functions Positive The H1 indicator contains 193 non-native species that are considered to be exerting a negative impact on native biodiversity.
Biosecurity H2 Distribution of invasive non-native species and plant pests and diseases D4 Relative abundance and distribution of widespread species Negative Preventing the spread of invasive non-native species limits their ability to disrupt ecosystems.
Biosecurity H2 Distribution of invasive non-native species and plant pests and diseases D5 Conservation status of our native species Negative Preventing the spread of invasive non-native species limits their ability to disrupt ecosystems.
Biosecurity H2 Distribution of invasive non-native species and plant pests and diseases D6 Abundance and distribution of priority species in England Negative Preventing the spread of invasive non-native species limits their ability to disrupt ecosystems.
Biosecurity H2 Distribution of invasive non-native species and plant pests and diseases D7 Species supporting ecosystem functions Negative Preventing the spread of invasive non-native species limits their ability to disrupt ecosystems.
Biosecurity H2 Distribution of invasive non-native species and plant pests and diseases E2 Volume of agricultural production Negative H2 includes tree pests that affect crops, such as Sweet chestnut blight.
