Conservation challenges faced by plants in arid regions from "summary" of Floristic Study of Arid Ecosystem: Ecology and Phytosociology by Dr. Ekta B. Joshi,Dr. Hiren B. Soni ,Dr. Pankaj N. Joshi
Arid regions present unique challenges for plant conservation due to their harsh environmental conditions. These regions are characterized by low rainfall, high temperatures, and poor soil quality, making it difficult for plants to thrive. As a result, plant species in arid regions are often adapted to survive in extreme conditions, such as by having deep root systems to access water stored deep in the ground.
One of the main conservation challenges faced by plants in arid regions is habitat loss due to human activities such as agriculture, urbanization, and mining. As human populations continue to grow, the demand for land increases, leading to the destruction of natural habitats. This loss of habitat threatens the survival of many plant species that are endemic to arid regions.
Another major conservation challenge is climate change, which is exacerbating the already harsh conditions in arid regions. Rising temperatures and changing precipitation patterns are affecting plant growth and distribution, leading to shifts in plant communities. T...
