The Impact of Climate Change on Global Biodiversity: A Multidisciplinary Approach

Abstract

Climate change has emerged as one of the most significant threats to global biodiversity. The changes in temperature, precipitation patterns, and extreme weather events, driven by anthropogenic climate change, are disrupting ecosystems and altering species distributions. This paper reviews the impacts of climate change on biodiversity, drawing on a multidisciplinary approach that includes ecology, biology, environmental science, and socio-economic perspectives. It examines the mechanisms by which climate change affects biodiversity, explores case studies across different ecosystems, and discusses potential mitigation and adaptation strategies. The need for integrated policies, conservation efforts, and international cooperation is emphasized to address the biodiversity crisis in the face of climate change.
