Abstract

This study investigates the effects of urban development on plant biodiversity in coastal wetland ecosystems. Using satellite imagery and field surveys, we analyzed changes in species diversity over the past two decades in response to increasing urban sprawl. Our findings indicate a significant decline in native plant species, with invasive species becoming more prevalent. These changes have critical implications for wetland conservation and urban planning strategies.
