Maps Show Where Himalayan Medicinal Plants Can Survive Climate Change
Original: Maps Reveal Where Threatened Himalayan Medicinal Plants Could Survive Climate Change
New mapping research identifies areas of the Himalayas where threatened medicinal plant species could persist as climate change shifts their habitats. By projecting future conditions, the maps highlight potential refuges for plants valued in traditional medicine and under pressure from warming temperatures. The work is drawing attention as a tool for targeting conservation efforts in one of the world's most biodiverse mountain regions.
Why now: Climate change is pushing Himalayan medicinal plants toward extinction, and the maps offer a new way to plan their conservation.
