Exploring centers of endemism and conservation gaps in Hindu Kush Himalaya by using spatial phylogenetics
Project summary:
This study will use species distribution data, a phylogenetic tree, and advanced analytical tools to explore endemism patterns and conservation gaps within the Hindu Kush Himalaya range. It will also identify phyto diversity hotspots, conservation gaps and environmental drivers to aid in global and regional conservation efforts.
