Summary
Details

Alpine ecosystems have adapted to harsh, high-elevation environments, making them some of the most sensitive and ecologically significant regions on the planet. The biodiversity of alpine vegetation also faces pressures from climate change, habitat fragmentation, human activities, and shifting ecological dynamics. These challenges threaten individual species and the stability of alpine communities and the ecosystem services they provide. Exploring the conservation needs, emerging challenges, and practical solutions for safeguarding alpine biodiversity is crucial for ensuring the resilience and sustainability of these mountain landscapes. Biodiversity of Alpine Vegetation: Conservation, Challenges, Prospects, and Solutions explores alpine plant biodiversity drawing from global ecosystems above the tree line, spanning the European Alps, the Himalayas, Tibetan Plateau, Andes, and beyond. It examines the ecological patterns, adaptive traits, and functional significance of alpine vegetation in sustaining mountain ecosystems and human communities. This book covers topics such as alpine floristics, ecology, and microhabitats, and is a useful resource for biologists, agriculturalists, ecologists, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
