Environmental Factors Driving the Spatial Distribution Pattern of Venerable Trees in Sichuan Province, China

Abstract: Venerable trees are important natural resources and cultural heritage, offering historical, ecological, social and economic value. However, global warming and anthropogenic activities have threatened their welfare and survival. A comprehensive understanding of their current and future spatial patterns, vis-á-vis environmental conditions, can inform the co-management of sustainable resource use and conservation. We employed the existing spatial occurrence data and environmental variables (bioclimate and elevati… Show more

“…To better understand and protect these irreplaceable and vulnerable resources, comprehensive LOT studies have been conducted worldwide to map distributions, assess threats, and develop conservation strategies (Le Roux et al., 2014 ; Lindenmayer & Laurance, 2017 ; Malliarou et al., 2023 ). Among various research methods, the species distribution model (SDM) has emerged as an essential tool with diverse applications in LOT studies and conservation planning (Xie et al., 2020 , 2022 ). SDM utilizes tailor‐made computer algorithms to predict potentially suitable habitats based on known occurrence records and environmental variables (Abdelaal et al., 2019 ; Zhang et al., 2023 ).…”

“…Furthermore, SDMs help identify key environmental factors shaping LOT distributions. The findings can inform conservation efforts, such as the BIOCLIM modeling of spatial pattern drivers in Sichuan, China, guiding the protection of threatened trees (Xie et al., 2022 ). Overall, SDMs can provide indispensable data and reliable predictions to locate priority conservation areas, monitor population changes, and safeguard these irreplaceable living legacies.…”

“…They accommodate imprints of evolution, competition, co-existence, and abiotic and biotic changes in their environs. While preserving a record of the changing regional ecological environment, they witness the vicissitudes of history and interactions with neighboring human communities [1]. LOT contribute significantly to various ecosystem services.…”

“…We aimed to discover the research development structure and trend. This study's primary goals addressed the following challenges by analyzing LOT literature published in 2000-2022 using bibliometric tools: (1) What are the literature's output profiles and citation characteristics? (2) What are the most influential papers using the literature co-citation network?…”

“…Adding site factors into the growth model is of great significance for selecting reasonable afforestation tree species, increasing ecological stability, and supporting forest productivity [ 42 , 43 ]. Climate is an important external environment that determines the dynamic change of tree distribution and forest function at the regional scale [ 44 , 45 ]. Under the same site conditions, different climates will lead to different tree growth.…”
