Impact of climate change on plant species richness across drylands in China: From past to present and into the future

Impact of climate change on plant species richness across drylands in China: From past to present and into the future

It is commonly believed that climate plays an important role in shaping the patterns of plant species richness. However, it remains unclear how climate may affect plant richness across large spatial scales and also over long-terms, for example across massive arid regions during the Quaternary and in...
