Thesis Abstract

Abstract
This thesis investigates the impact of climate change on plant species diversity in a specific region. Climate change is a pressing global issue that is altering ecosystems and biodiversity worldwide. Plants play a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance and are particularly vulnerable to the effects of changing climate patterns. The specific region under study provides a unique opportunity to assess the relationship between climate change and plant species diversity due to its diverse ecosystem and documented climate variations. Through a comprehensive literature review, research methodology, data analysis, and discussion of findings, this study aims to shed light on the complex interactions between climate change and plant diversity.
