Abstract
Alpine ecosystems are among the most sensitive to climate change, with significant implications for biodiversity. This study conducts a comprehensive meta-analysis of existing research to quantify the impact of climate change on plant species diversity in alpine environments. Findings indicate a shift in species composition, with thermophilic species increasingly dominating these ecosystems. The study highlights the need for conservation strategies that prioritize the preservation of endemic species and the protection of alpine habitats. This research provides a critical foundation for policymakers and conservationists aiming to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change on alpine biodiversity.
