-Biodiversity changes should be of the same concern as biodiversity loss
From corals to carnivores, the diversity of life forms in the world is being attacked to varying degrees
So, will the global extinction crisis cause a decline in the level of local biodiversity? A new species study by the University of Vermont, the University of St Andrews, and the University of Scotland and Maine did not find this
The number of species has not decreased but increased
According to a recent report by the Daily Science Network, this new study led by Maria from the University of St Andrews in Scotland carefully searched for species detection studies tracked and counted years ago around the world, and selected more than 35,000 different species in 100 years.
Studies have found that for decades, the number of species in many places has not changed much, but has increased
However, the researchers also found some rapid changes in the study: Almost 80% of the population showed substantial changes in species composition, with an average of about 10% changes every ten years, significantly exceeding the speed predicted by various models
In other words, this new report shows that species in global habitats are undergoing a huge turnover, resulting in new biomes
The diversity of endemic communities is increasing
Nick said: "The ants in Florida alone have a huge diversity, and about 30% of them are not local.
Nick said: "The disturbed coral reef may be replaced by a group of algae
The reasons for this shift are not completely clear, but the impact of protection and policy may be the most significant
The problem still exists
The results of this study were published in the latest issue of "Science" magazine
Sampling may conceal important facts: some species may have become quite rare.
Changes in the magnitude of climate change are also at work, which can quickly push species into new areas
This study emphasizes this emerging reality and gives a worrying progress
