Impact of Climate Change on Arthropod Diversity

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Arthropod Diversity and Conservation in the Tropics and Sub-tropics

Abstract

Today, understanding the consequences of changes in biological diversity due to global warming has become critically important. Climate change has profound influence on arthropod diversity. Principal effects of climate change on arthropod diversity include decrease in decomposers and predators and parasites and increased herbivory which affects the structure and function of ecosystems. With changes in arthropod communities, farmers are experiencing decreases in soil fertility and crop productivity. Amelioration includes organic farming, cultivation of climate-resilient crops, the use of water energy, wind energy, maintaining water bodies, reducing vehicular emissions, etc.
