A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY ON CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACT ON FOREST AND ADAPTIVE MEASURES

The enormous tropical forests are always in danger of being degraded. Numerous researchers have previously made the effort to identify the cause and provide remedies for sustainable management. However, the most important accelerator of forest degradation now is due to recent, significant changes in climatic conditions. Increased species extinction rates, changes in reproductive timings, lengthened plant growth seasons, altered species habitat distribution, and other effects are some of the key expected effects of these changes on forest ecosystem accounting. India is a tropical country with two of the world's biodiversity hotspots, making it even more important for the nation to participate in research on the effect of climate change. The Western Ghats, Eastern Himalayas, and Eastern Ghats of the nation are the three areas where the majority of this biodiversity is found. In research on the effects of climate change, the Eastern Ghats of India have gotten the least attention. This research came to the conclusion that it is crucial to investigate how climate change is affecting the variety of flowers in India's Eastern Ghats. The Eastern Ghats region's Kolli Hill, where climate research is still in its infancy, is the location of the current study.
