Hotspots of (sub)alpine plants in the Irano-Anatolian global biodiversity hotspot are insufficiently protected

Jalil Noroozi et al.

Summary: This study aims to investigate the biodiversity hotspots and conservation status of subalpine-alpine habitats in Southwest Asia. Using distribution data of subalpine vascular plant species, the researchers identified hotspots and conservation gaps. The results show that a large proportion of these hotspots are unprotected, highlighting the need for new nature reserves in these areas.

Alpine plants are on the move: Quantifying distribution shifts of Australian alpine plants through time

Jennifer Auld et al.

Summary: The study reveals that Australian alpine plant species are shifting rapidly to higher elevations in response to climate change. This could potentially help the species to adapt and persist, but if current warming trends continue, several species within the Australian alpine zone may lose suitable habitat in the future.

Genomic insights into the genotype-environment mismatch and conservation units of a Qinghai-Tibet Plateau endemic cypress under climate change

Heng Yang et al.

Summary: Habitat loss induced by climate warming is a major threat to biodiversity, particularly to threatened species. This study focuses on Cupressus gigantea to understand its genetic diversity and distributional responses to climate change. The research identifies separate management units based on genetic clusters and demographic histories, and highlights the vulnerability of all populations of C. gigantea to future climate change.

Protected area network insufficiently represents climatic niches of endemic plants in a Global Biodiversity Hotspot

Simon Ludovicy et al.

Summary: Protected Areas (PA) play a crucial role in conservation biology, but climate change poses challenges to their effectiveness. This study assesses the impact of climate change on the endemic mountain flora of the Iranian Plateau and finds that the current Iranian PA network may not adequately protect these species in the future. The study suggests that conservation planning in this biodiversity hotspot should focus on expanding elevational gradients within PAs and prioritizing the protection of narrow range, low and high elevation species.

Diversity, Distribution, and Classification of Chasmophytic Vegetation in the Central Asian Biodiversity Hotspot: Alpine Belt of the Eastern Pamir-Alai and Western Tian Shan Mountains

Arkadiusz Nowak et al.

Summary: This study conducted research on chasmophytic vegetation in the alpine belt of the eastern part of Middle Asia. Five main groups of vegetation were identified, representing 16 specific plant communities. The study suggests a weak relationship between the rock vegetation in the study area and that in neighboring regions.

Global Hotspots for Future Absolute Temperature Extremes From CMIP6 Models

Salah Basem Ajjur et al.

Summary: This study projected the trend of absolute temperature extremes globally through the 21st century, showing significant increases under high emission scenarios during the middle and end of the century. All reference regions are expected to experience notable growth in extreme temperature indices.
