Question

What is the influence of climate on different types of natural vegetation

Answer 1

Climate is one of the most important determinants of vegetation patterns globally and has significant influence on the distribution, structure and ecology of forests.
If the global average temperature increase exceeds about 3.5 degree Celsius, model projections suggest significant extinctions (40-70% of species assessed) around the globe. Global warming does not only make vegetation “gasp for air” but also leads to habitat loss. This is an especially big problem for sensitive species.
