Exploring the effects of climate change on plant biodiversity in a specific ecosystem

Project Abstract

Climate change is a global phenomenon that has significant impacts on ecosystems worldwide. This research project aims to investigate the effects of climate change on plant biodiversity within a specific ecosystem. The study focuses on understanding how climate change influences the composition, distribution, and abundance of plant species in the chosen ecosystem. By exploring these effects, the research aims to contribute to the broader understanding of how climate change impacts plant communities and biodiversity.
