“…Regionally, there have been relatively few published journal articles on impacts or adaptation in forests in the Southern Hemisphere (Hughes et al 1996;Williams 2000;Pinkard et al 2010;Gonzalez et al 2011;Mok et al 2012;Breed et al 2013), although there have been more studies in the grey literature for Australian forests (Battaglia et al 2009;Cockfield et al 2011;Medlyn et al 2011;Stephens et al 2012). There have been some valuable analyses for the tropics (Guariguata et al 2008(Guariguata et al , 2012Somorin et al 2012;Feeley et al 2012).…”

Abstract& Key message Adaptation of forest management to climate change requires an understanding of the effects of climate on forests, industries and communities; prediction of how these effects might change over time; and incorporation of this knowledge into management decisions. This requires multiple forms of knowledge and new approaches to forest management decisions. Partnerships that integrate researchers from multiple disciplines with forest managers and local actors can build a shared understanding of future challenges and facilitate improved decision making in the face of climate change.

“…Climate not only plays a significant role in the growth and reproduction of plants, but also governs factors concerning the survival, development, and distribution of species ( Kozak et al, 2008 ; Wu et al, 2011 ; Ford and HilleRisLambers, 2019 ; Criado et al, 2020 ; Dolezal et al, 2020 ; Wang et al, 2021 ). Detrimental influences of rapid climatic warming on global biodiversity include the changing the life history of species, community composition, vegetation pattern, and ecosystem function ( Williams, 2000 ; Thomas C. D. et al, 2004 ; Thomas J. A. et al, 2004 ; McKenney et al, 2007 ; Thuiller, 2007 ; Bellard et al, 2012 ; Alberto et al, 2013 ; Al-Qaddi et al, 2017 ; Xu et al, 2018 ).…”

Among them, the variation of species distribution range, which is a direct visible response of species toward climate change, is a key issue that has garnered international attention (Mantykapringle et al, 2012;Anderson, 2013;Pacifici et al, 2015).…”

Assessing the Impact of Climate Change on Potential Distribution of Meconopsis punicea and Its Influence on Ecosystem Services Supply in the Southeastern Margin of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

et al. 2022

Meconopsis punicea is an iconic ornamental and medicinal plant whose natural habitat has degraded under global climate change, posing a serious threat to the future survival of the species. Therefore, it is critical to analyze the influence of climate change on possible distribution of M. punicea for conservation and sustainable utilization of this species. In this study, we used MaxEnt ecological niche modeling to predict the potential distribution of M. punicea under current and future climate scenarios in the southeastern margin region of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Model projections under current climate show that 16.8% of the study area is suitable habitat for Meconopsis. However, future projections indicate a sharp decline in potential habitat for 2050 and 2070 climate change scenarios. Soil type was the most important environmental variable in determining the habitat suitability of M. punicea, with 27.75% contribution to model output. Temperature seasonality (16.41%), precipitation of warmest quarter (14.01%), and precipitation of wettest month (13.02%), precipitation seasonality (9.41%) and annual temperature range (9.24%) also made significant contributions to model output. The mean elevation of suitable habitat for distribution of M. punicea is also likely to shift upward in most future climate change scenarios. This study provides vital information for the protection and sustainable use of medicinal species like M. punicea in the context of global environmental change. Our findings can aid in developing rational, broad-scale adaptation strategies for conservation and management for ecosystem services, in light of future climate changes.

“…19 What we do know is that Thomas and William James migrated from Bristol, one of the major shipping ports in England, during the heyday of the British slave trade or more correctly the triangular trade between Britain, Africa and the British Caribbean. 20 The early background of these young men has not been ascertained, neither has their reasons for migrating to Jamaica. However, their coming could not be considered strange as, from early British settlement, white males were encouraged to settle the island.…”

It is a traditionally held view that slavery retarded industrial enterprises, and as such any form of metallurgical industries/activities, for example, would be alien in a slave society. Recent research has, however, indicated quite clearly the technological capacity of slave societies, noting that technological innovations including technical enterprises were evident in slave societies and thus challenges the 'incompatibility thesis' that slavery retarded economic development. 1
