Traditional Knowledge and Medicinal Plant Species Shifts Under Climate Change Adaptation
摘要
TheSpecies move traditional knowledgeTraditional knowledge and cultureCulture of TibetanTibetan communities in the eastern HimalayasEastern Himalayas offer a valuable perspective for analyzing the impact of climate changeClimate change on species migration. Moreover, this traditional knowledgeTraditional knowledge and cultureCulture can play a crucial role in biodiversityBiodiversity conservation strategies aimed at mitigating the effects of climate changeClimate change. Drawing upon TibetanTibetan medicinal plantMedicinal plant knowledge, this paper seeks to advance quantitative research on traditional knowledgeTraditional knowledge by developing it as an index to measure the distributional shifts of TibetanTibetan medicinal plantsMedicinal plant under the influence of climate changeClimate change. Additionally, the paper explores the traditional beliefTraditional beliefs systems surrounding sacred areas and examines biocultural conservation practices in these regions as a means of adapting to climate changeClimate change. Such traditional cultural practices can enhance the resilienceResilience of local populations in the face of climate challenges. Consequently, interdisciplinary collaboration between natural and social sciences is essential in climate changeClimate change research. Likewise, when formulating climate changeClimate change mitigation and adaptation strategiesAdaptation strategies, policies from international organizations and governments must integrate local traditional knowledgeTraditional knowledge and cultural practices.
