Description

Yang Nan and co-authors map the future home of a medicinal shrub in this 2026 study. Acanthopanax sessiliflorus grows in East Asian temperate forests and is valued in herbal medicine, but how climate change will shift its range was not well measured.

A computer model trained on climate, soil, and land shape found its current good habitat covers a large area of northern China, centred near Beijing and the Changbai Mountains. The yearly swing of temperature mattered most. Under all four future climate paths, the best habitat shrank by 2100, most steeply under high emissions, and the range centre drifted northwest. The authors offer the maps for planting and conservation plans.
