I tried with the ASCII formatted data and it works fine using the GRASS
r.in.arc module. Here are the steps:
Create a GRASS location based on the EPSG:4326 coordinate reference
system, and set its region to the whole world, with resolution 0.5 deg:
g.region e=180 w=-180 n=90 s=-90 res=0.5 -p
Download the ASCII file. I had to make one small change in the ARC/Info
headers: the NOVALUE number should be an integer, so just change it to
-9999 (instead of -9999.00000).
Now:
r.in.arc Pesticide_Loading.asc out=pesticide
and display the resulting raster.

Import with r.in.gdal doesn't require the files to be modified, e.g.:
r.in.gdal input=Biodiversity_Threat.asc out=Biodiversity_Threat -o
