Effects of climate change on plant species distribution and biodiversity in a tropical rainforest ecosystem

Project Abstract

Climate change is one of the most pressing global challenges facing the world today, with far-reaching implications for ecosystems and biodiversity. This research project focuses on investigating the effects of climate change on plant species distribution and biodiversity in a tropical rainforest ecosystem. The study aims to provide valuable insights into how changing climatic conditions are impacting the distribution and diversity of plant species in these critical ecosystems.
