Globally, there are currently over 200,000 PAs that cover approximately 15% of land area. The post-2020 global biodiversity framework aims to expand this coverage to 30% by 2030. However, focusing only on the percentage coverage of PAs without evaluating their effectiveness may fail to achieve conservation goals. Here, we use a multidimensional approach incorporating species, climate and anthropogenic vulnerabilities to assess the threat levels in over 2500 PAs in China. We identify nearly 10% of PAs as the most threatened PAs in China and about one-fifth PAs as hotspots of climate and anthropogenic vulnerabilities. We also find high climate instability in species vulnerability hotspots, suggesting an elevated likelihood of species&amp;#039; extirpation therein. Our framework could be useful in assessing resiliency of global protected lands and also in selecting near optimal areas for their future expansion.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov&amp;#039;t</style></work-type><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">33712613</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shrestha, NawalXu, XiaotingMeng, JiahuiWang, ZhihengEnglandNat Commun. 2021 Mar 12;12(1):1632. doi: 10.1038/s41467-021-21914-w.</style></notes><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7955075</style></custom2><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">State Key Laboratory of Grassland Agro-Ecosystem, Institute of Innovation Ecology, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou, China. nawalshrestha@gmail.com.Institute of Ecology and Key Laboratory for Earth Surface Processes of the Ministry of Education, College of Urban and Environmental Sciences, Peking University, Beijing, China. nawalshrestha@gmail.com.Society for Conservation Biology Nepal, Bagdol, Lalitpur, Nepal. nawalshrestha@gmail.com.Key Laboratory of Bio-Resource and Eco-Environment of Ministry of Education, College of Life Sciences, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.Institute of Ecology and Key Laboratory for Earth Surface Processes of the Ministry of Education, College of Urban and Environmental Sciences, Peking University, Beijing, China.Institute of Ecology and Key Laboratory for Earth Surface Processes of the Ministry of Education, College of Urban and Environmental Sciences, Peking University, Beijing, China. zhiheng.wang@pku.edu.cn.</style></auth-address></record></records></xml>
