To communicate the correlation between the two variables, you can present it graphically using a scatter plot. Plot the percentage of land under protection on the x-axis and the number of species on the y-axis.

If the correlation is positive (as described in all four scenarios), you will see the data points clustering in an upward trend from left to right, indicating that as the percentage of land under protection increases, the number of species also increases.

On the other hand, if the correlation was negative (which is not the case in any of the scenarios), you would see the data points trending downwards from left to right, showing that as the percentage of land under protection decreases, the number of species increases.

In your case, since all scenarios indicate a positive correlation, the scatter plot will show an upward trend, illustrating the relationship between the two variables.
