Orchid distribution and bioclimatic niches as a strategy to climate change in areas of tropical dry forest in Colombia
GA Reina-Rodríguez, JE Rubiano Mejía… - Lankesteriana, 2017 - scielo.sa.cr
Climate change projections in Colombia predict an average increase in temperature of 2.6 C
and in precipitation of 20% by the end of the century. These changes would directly affect
the tropical dry forest (TDF) and its biodiversity. Epiphytic orchids, more exposed to the
atmosphere than the terrestrial biota, remain dependent on climatic variables, making them
particularly susceptible to climate change. We studied the spatial and temporal changes of a
focal group of 12 orchid species typical of the TDF in Colombia, and the future conservation …
