@aufdenkampe Percent protected within FAs exceeded 100% because the area of the protected land computed prior to clipping to the FA/cluster geometry was being used to determine percent protected. I have recomputed all protected areas after clipping to ensure that the percent protected reflects land within and not intersecting the FA/cluster.
