Overview

This study demonstrates changes in species distribution in response to climate change in Senegal, implying threats to biodiversity and the need for adaptive management strategies.

Key Points

Assess how climate change influences the distribution of valuable tree species in the Sudanian zone of Senegal.
Analyzed forest inventory data from 2,398 plots
Evaluated species distribution under three SSP scenarios for 2100
Utilized models based on multiple logistic regression with a binomial response distribution
Mean annual temperature is projected to rise for all scenarios
Nine tree species face significant decline under SSP2-4.5 and SSP3-7.0
Certain species risk local extinction by 2100, especially under the extreme SSP5-8.5 scenario
