Endemic island species face heightened extinction risk from climate-driven shifts, yet standard models often underestimate threat levels for those like Quercus alnifolia, an iconic Cypriot oak with pre-adaptations to aridity. Through distribution modelling, we investigated the potential shifts in its under future climate and land-use change scenarios. Our approach uniquely combines dispersal constraints, detailed soil characteristics, hydrological factors, anticipated erosion data, offering a comprehensive assessment of environmental suitability. We quantified species’ sensitivity, exposure, vulnerability projected changes, conducting preliminary IUCN according Criteria A B. projections uniformly predict range reductions, median decrease 67.8% by 2070s most extreme Additionally, our research indicates alnifolia’s resilience diverse conditions preference relatively dry climates within specific annual temperature range. The designates alnifolia as Critically Endangered future, highlighting need focused conservation efforts. Climate changes are critical threats survival, emphasising importance modelling techniques urgent requirement dedicated measures safeguard this species.

The Mediterranean area is one of the most significantly altered biodiversity hotspots on Earth’s surface; it has been intensively affected by anthropogenic activity for millennia, forming complex socioecological systems. In parallel, long history natural ecological processes and deep interlinking with human populations led to landscape patterns, such as spatial heterogeneity, that facilitate provision essential ecosystem services (ESs). As such, a comprehensive understanding underlying factors influence supply ESs paramount importance effective forest management policies ensure both integrity welfare. This study aimed at identifying local specific interactions across three different scales between metrics using global geographical random models. findings showed dense cover may have positive effect ESs, climate regulation timber provision. Although heterogeneity considered among main facilitators multifunctionality, this did not fully apply Marathasa region, homogeneity seems be linked multiple services. By assessing under which conditions characteristics thrive, stakeholders managers can support co-occurrence societal wellbeing.

Sustainable forest resource utilization can alleviate poverty in developing countries, including Indonesia, mainly by rural community groups like farmer (KTH). However, the capacity of KTH to manage resources is still low, leading a decline their well-being, exemplified Kampar Regency. Unlike previous studies, this research focuses on based institutional, area management, and business aspects. The objective study analyze factors influencing KTH’s well-being build development model for KTH. was conducted Regency with 193 respondents using census method. Data analysis used Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) technique. study’s findings reveal that management significantly influences Regency, followed institutional involves enhancing key indicators each aspect, such as involvement government/non-government organizations/other institution programs, appropriate utilization, increased capital, steps achieve productive, self-reliant, prosperous, sustainable management.

Forest resources in the arid and semi-arid of Sudan are experiencing significant fluctuations tree cover ecological functionality. This study aims to bridge this gap by utilizing multi-temporal Landsat imagery mapping forest change Nabag Reserve (NFR) South Kordofan State, Sudan. For assessment, two cloud-free images (TM from 2011 OLI 2021) were downloaded analyzed using ArcMap 10.7 ERDAS 2014 software. Supervised classification techniques applied, corroborated GPS point verification field surveys, quantify changes over decade. The results revealed that dense increased 9% 38.9% 2021, while light decreased 34.4% 30.9% 2021. Additionally, area occupied agriculture barren land declined 37.2% 19.4% 18.7% 11.5% respectively. Rapid shifts observed all LULC categories during period. primary causes deforestation degradation felling, unsustainable grazing practices, construction activities. These findings crucial for guiding future rehabilitation creating targeted management plans local communities reliant on these forests.
