Description
Yu Liu and Lin Chen modeled how climate change will shift hazel species' ranges in China in a 2024 study. Corylus species, the hazels, matter for nuts, ecology, and breeding stock. The team used the MaxEnt model with climate, terrain, and human pressure data.
The coldest month's mean temperature and the human footprint index emerged as the strongest drivers of suitable habitat. The projections show substantial movement of good habitat as the climate warms. Other factors, from rainfall to slope, refined the maps. Knowing where hazels can thrive in future decades helps conservation planners protect wild stands and farmers choose planting regions that will stay viable.
