United Kingdom · 100 ha

Cambridge, England

Converted · Rebuild

Converted. The rebuild starts with water, then soil.

37of 100range 12 to 62 · 72% sure

Condition of the land

The score, 0 to 100. 100 is land of its kind that people have left alone.

487896

37 reads converted (below 48). The range, 12 to 62, is where its two measures disagree; 72% of it stays converted. A site visit settles it.

This land has lost most of what it was. Bringing it back is slow.

Read from two measures

Unchanged20

How little people have changed it, from roads and buildings to fields and lights.

Unconverted54

How much of it is not fields, buildings, or missing the forest it would carry.

The score sits between the two.

Trees now 33%. Left alone, about 70%.

The land's signature

Five pillars under the score, 0 at the centre to 100 at the rim: water, ecology, climate resilience, freedom from pressure and soil.

Screened for Cambridgeshire, England, United Kingdom, not for this land: a planning prompt. A site study settles the land itself. The sea is more than 25 km away, so the coastal rows do not apply to this land.

StrengthNo forest has been cleared within 10 km of the land since 2001. 1,290 ha of forest within 10 km in 2000, and no clearing of a hectare or more since (Hansen Global Forest Change).
RiskRainfall is low, making water availability a primary constraint. 617 mm of rain per year — below the roughly 1,000 mm rain-fed agriculture usually needs.
UnknownJurisdiction is part of the parcel. United Kingdom · England · Cambridgeshire · Cambridge — 125,758 people in the governing unit.
First moveBuild a water budget sized to the projected dry spell, not the annual average.
