The primary determinant of global biodiversity patterns is primarily related to climate and its influence on species distribution. The availability of resources, such as sunlight and moisture, creates diverse habitats that support numerous species. Areas with stable and favorable climates, combined with geographical features like topography, tend to harbor more species. Furthermore, historical factors, including geological changes and continental drift, also contribute to current biodiversity patterns. Understanding these determinants helps inform conservation strategies aimed at protecting global biodiversity.
