Project Abstract

Abstract
Climate change is a pressing global issue that has significant impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems worldwide. This research project aims to explore the effects of climate change on plant biodiversity within a local ecosystem. The study will focus on understanding how changing climatic conditions influence the distribution, abundance, and composition of plant species in the selected ecosystem. Through a combination of field surveys, data analysis, and literature review, the research aims to provide insights into the specific responses of plant communities to climate change factors such as temperature fluctuations, precipitation patterns, and extreme weather events.
