The effects of climate change on plant biodiversity in a tropical rainforest ecosystem.

Project Abstract

Climate change is a pressing global issue that has significant impacts on ecosystems worldwide, including tropical rainforests. This research project investigates the effects of climate change on plant biodiversity in a tropical rainforest ecosystem. The study aims to provide valuable insights into how changing climatic conditions are influencing plant diversity and distribution within these vital ecosystems.
