Exploring the effects of climate change on the growth and development of native plant species in a specific region

Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Climate change is a pressing global issue that continues to impact ecosystems and biodiversity worldwide. This study focuses on exploring the effects of climate change on the growth and development of native plant species in a specific region. The research aims to investigate how changes in temperature, precipitation patterns, and other climatic factors influence the physiological processes, distribution, and abundance of native plant species. By understanding these impacts, we can better predict and manage the consequences of climate change on plant communities.
