Ephedra sinica and intermedia are important medicinal plants critical raw materials for ephedrine extraction in the pharmaceutical industry. Climate change will affect their distribution quality. In our study, information on E. was collected through wilderness online surveys. Using high-performance liquid chromatography, we determined contents of pseudoephedrine. We then utilized maximum entropy model to assess potential impact future climate quality two Ephedra. The results showed that species were predominantly found arid semiarid regions northern China. suitable habitats area be severely degraded under RCP 2.6, 4.5 8.5 conditions opposite. accumulation chemical components depends precipitation wettest month (Bio13) soil sand content, while mean temperature warmest quarter (Bio10) seasonality (Bio15).

Accurate information concerning the spatial distribution of invasive alien species’ habitats is essential for species prevention and management, ecological sustainability. Currently, nationwide identification suitable highly destructive potentially weed, Solanum rostratum Dunal (S. rostratum), poses a series challenges. Simultaneously, research on potential future invasion areas likely directions spread has not received adequate attention. This study, based occurrence data multi-dimensional environmental variables constructed from multi-source remote sensing data, utilized Principal Component Analysis (PCA) in combination with Maxent model to effectively current habitat S. China, while quantitatively assessing various factors influencing its distribution. Research findings indicate that area covers 1.3952 million km2, all which located northern China. As trend climate warming persists, suitability range projected shift southward expand future; still predominantly it will have varying degrees expansion at different time frames. Notably, during period 2040 2061, under SSP1-2.6 scenario, exhibits most significant increase, surpassing scenario by 19.23%. Furthermore, attribution analysis PCA inverse transformation reveals soil, climate, spatial, humanistic, topographic collectively influence habitats, soil factors, particular, playing dominant role contributing up 75.85%. study identifies target management control rostratum, providing valuable insights into factor selection variable screening methods modeling (SDM).

Abstract The ongoing climatic change, together with atmospheric pollution, influences the timing, duration and intensity of pollen seasons some allergenic plant taxa. To study these influences, we correlated trends in season characteristics both woody ( Fraxinus , Quercus ) herbaceous Ambrosia taxa from two monitoring stations Slovakia meteorological factors air pollutants during last decades. In species, increased temperature formation flower buds summer autumn led to an earlier onset intensification next year’s season, especially . increase relative humidity precipitation this time also had a positive influence on trees. invasive species artemisiifolia was prolonged by same year, which extended blooming period delayed end season. From studied pollutants, only three were found correlate taxa, CO − positively SO 2 NO negatively. It is important long-term since they not give us valuable insight into response plants changing conditions but enable prognosis exacerbations pollen-related diseases.

Abstract Wetlands are highly productive ecosystems that host unique biota and provide vital ecosystem services. Despite their critical importance, we still lack a fundamental understanding of factors controlling species suitability climate change impacts in wetlands essential to conserving these imperiled the face anthropogenic threats. Here, applied ecological niche models (ENMs) inferred from massive nationwide data set including field surveys herbarium specimens representing 101 dominant plant China's inland wetlands, explore potential climate‐driven shifts ecosystems. Our optimal applying machine learning integrating key aspects climate, soil, topographic hydrology, disturbance, identified (a) different types (e.g., woody/nonwoody) showed significant differences sensitivity extracted environmental isothermality, water table depth) wetlands; (b) native wetland likely habitat shrinkage under change, especially Northeast China, as well encroachment xeric nonnative species; (c) only less than 20% projected conservation hotspots currently protected. We propose four protection gaps need be addressed urgently current framework. This study clarifies priorities provides practical guidelines for improvement efforts.

Invasive alien plants (IAPs) have serious environmental and economic impacts, especially in vulnerable areas of China. However, IAP richness distribution patterns, their driving factors, the dynamic shifts potential remain elusive. We assessed patterns drivers using 402 IAPs recorded China at 88 926 occurrence points, then predicted areas. The results show that hotspots were mainly located southeastern China, coastal South East large inland cities. Population density, gross domestic product (GDP), four climate variables associated with precipitation temperature jointly influenced pattern all IAPs. Specifically, population density GDP impacted narrow‐range IAPs, GDP, distance to nearest national highway, five affected widespread Only contributed significantly top 5% hotspot grid cells, whereas driest month (BIO14) for both 10% 20%. Prediction analysis demonstrated would particularly high invasion risk under current future scenarios. Regions increases species are more common (44.83–64.97%) than those decreases, except Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 4.5 scenario. Climate change will contribute greatly expansion optimistic (RCP 2.5) pessimistic scenarios 8.5). this study provide insights into priority management by developing promising strategies control prevention invasion.
