Potential impacts of future climate on twelve key multipurpose tree species in Benin: Insights from species distribution modeling for biodiversity conservation
Sèdoami Flora Dogbo , Kolawolé Valère Salako, Gafarou Agoundé, Kangbéni Dimobe, Adjo Estelle Geneviève Adiko, Jens Gebauer, Constant Yves Adou Yao, Romain Glèlè Kakaï
The global decline of biodiversity threatens ecosystem stability and human well-being. This study modeled the future suitable habitats of twelve key multipurpose tree species (MPTS) in Benin under two climate scenarios, Shared Socioeconomic Pathways 245 (SSP245) and 585 (SSP585), based on a 2070 horizon. The research focused on peri‑urban area(...)
