Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Climate change is a pressing global issue that has far-reaching consequences on various ecosystems and wildlife populations. This thesis investigates the impacts of climate change on wildlife populations in a specific region, focusing on understanding the changes in biodiversity, distribution patterns, and behavior of these species. The study employs a multi-disciplinary approach, combining ecological field surveys, data analysis, and modeling techniques to assess the effects of climate change on wildlife. Chapter One provides an introduction to the research topic, highlighting the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the thesis, and definition of key terms. The chapter sets the stage for the subsequent chapters and outlines the importance of studying the impacts of climate change on wildlife populations. Chapter Two presents a comprehensive literature review that synthesizes existing research on climate change impacts on wildlife populations. The review covers ten key areas, including changes in species distribution, phenology shifts, habitat loss, population dynamics, and adaptation strategies employed by wildlife in response to changing climatic conditions. Chapter Three details the research methodology employed in this study. It includes descriptions of the study area, sampling techniques, data collection methods, and analytical approaches. The chapter also discusses the challenges faced during the research process and how they were addressed to ensure the validity and reliability of the findings. Chapter Four presents an in-depth discussion of the research findings related to the impacts of climate change on wildlife populations in the specific region under study. The chapter analyzes the data collected, interprets the results, and discusses the implications of these findings for wildlife conservation and management in the face of a changing climate. Chapter Five serves as the conclusion and summary of the thesis. It synthesizes the key findings of the study, discusses the implications for wildlife populations in the specific region, and provides recommendations for future research and conservation efforts. The chapter concludes by reinforcing the importance of addressing climate change impacts on wildlife populations for the preservation of biodiversity and ecosystem health. In conclusion, this thesis sheds light on the critical issue of climate change impacts on wildlife populations in a specific region. By employing a multi-faceted approach, the study provides valuable insights into the challenges faced by wildlife in adapting to changing environmental conditions and highlights the urgent need for proactive conservation measures to mitigate these impacts and ensure the long-term survival of vulnerable species.
