The main threats driving these trends include climate change, land- and sea-use change, pollution, over-exploitation, and invasive species. Strategic allocation of conservation resources is critical to address the drivers of biodiversity loss and safeguard biodiversity and its benefits to people. However, spatial assessments quantifying the relative potential impact of these drivers on important biodiversity areas are lacking at meaningful scales for national decision making. Here, we describe the distribution and intensity of the five main threats to biodiversity loss and their spatial overlaps with areas of relatively high terrestrial and freshwater biodiversity importance in the contiguous U.S. (CONUS). Proxies for each threat are based on publicly available spatial data considering both current and future projections when possible. We assess threat intensity in relation to protected area boundaries and biodiversity important areas, and quantify deviations in threat exposure between ecoregions and national scales. Overall, 41% of CONUS are areas of high conservation concern (i.e., medium-high biodiversity value and cumulative threat risk), concentrated along eastern and western coastal regions. Combined areas of highest threat intensity (90th percentile) also cover 40% of CONUS, and almost 20% are within current protected area network, leaving a significant amount of high threat intensity areas exempt from legislative protections. We found imperiled biodiversity exposure to individual and cumulative threats varies by geographic region and taxonomic group. We propose areas of low biodiversity importance but high threat intensity as candidates for policies aimed at preserving ecosystem intactness and human health. Our threat mapping assessment provides a baseline for conservation priorities across scales and could be used to develop spatially explicit guidance for mitigating threats to imperiled biodiversity in CONUS.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":422,"journal":{"name":"Science of the Total Environment","volume":"1052 ","pages":"Article 182318"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2026-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149156518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study assessed the uptake of <em>per</em>- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), in <em>Cannabis sativa</em> (CBD-hemp) and <em>Medicago sativa</em> (alfalfa) across two greenhouse trials. Congener-resolved-PFAS analyses were performed on soil and plant tissues to characterize uptake patterns and examine how variability in soil quality aligns with PFAS accumulation. In alfalfa, short-chain PFAS predominated in shoots and long-chain PFAS molecules in roots, while total PFAS concentrations were similar across tissues. In hemp, inflorescences carried the highest PFAS concentration and stems the lowest. For both species, translocation factors (TF; shoot/root PFAS concentration) and bioconcentration factors (BCF; plant tissue/soil PFAS concentration) decreased with increasing PFAS chain length for both perfluorosulfonic acids (PFSAs) and perfluorocarboxylic acids (PFCAs). Relationships between % soil organic matter (SOM) and PFAS uptake were species- and compound-specific, whereas soil electrical conductivity (EC) exhibited more consistent associations with PFAS concentrations in soil and plant tissues. Higher PFAS concentrations in hemp roots and lower residual soil PFAS concentrations at harvest were associated with lower EC, resulting in higher BCF values for both species. These findings suggest that soil ionic conditions may influence PFAS mobility and bioavailability and highlight the value of incorporating soil EC measurements alongside PFAS concentrations when evaluating PFAS uptake in agricultural systems.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":422,"journal":{"name":"Science of the Total Environment","volume":"1052 ","pages":"Article 182333"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2026-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149156519","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
