Biodiversity conservation in the context of climate change: Facing challenges and management strategies

Original language description

Biodiversity conservation amidst the uncertainty of climate change presents unique challenges that necessitateprecise management strategies. The study reported here was aimed at refining understanding of these challengesand to propose specific, actionable management strategies. Employing a quantitative literature analysis, wemeticulously examined 1268 research articles from the Web of Science database between 2005 and 2023.Through Cite Spaces and VOS viewer software, we conducted a bibliometric analysis and thematic synthesis topinpoint emerging trends, key themes, and the geographical distribution of research efforts. Our methodologyinvolved identifying patterns within the data, such as frequency of keywords, co-authorship networks, andcitation analysis, to discern the primary focus areas within the field. This approach allowed us to distinguishbetween research concentration areas, specifically highlighting a predominant interest in Environmental Sciences Ecology (67.59 %) and Biodiversity Conservation (22.63 %). The identification of adaptive managementpractices and ecosystem services maintenance are central themes in the research from 2005 to 2023. Moreover,challenges such as understanding phenological shifts, invasive species dynamics, and anthropogenic pressurescritically impact biodiversity conservation efforts. Our findings underscore the urgent need for precise, datadriven decision-making processes in the face of these challenges. Addressing the gaps identified, our studyproposes targeted solutions, including the establishment of germplasm banks for at-risk species, the developmentof advanced genomic and microclimate models, and scenario analysis to predict and mitigate future conservationchallenges. These strategies are aimed at enhancing the resilience of biodiversity against the backdrop of climatechange through integrated, evidence-based approaches. By leveraging the compiled and analyzed data, this studyoffers a foundational framework for future research and practical action in biodiversity conservation strategies,demonstrating a path forward through detailed analysis and specified solutions.
