Abstract

This study investigates the effects of urban development on plant species diversity within tropical ecosystems. By analyzing data from multiple urban centers in Southeast Asia, we have identified significant declines in native plant species coupled with an increase in non-native species proliferation. Our research highlights the importance of green urban planning and the implementation of biodiversity-friendly policies to mitigate the negative impacts of urbanization on plant diversity. We propose a framework for integrating biodiversity conservation into city planning to preserve essential ecosystem services.
