Studying the effects of heat waves on ecosystems is significant as climate change increasingly exposes biomes to extreme temperatures. Heat waves can disrupt species interactions, affect reproductive patterns, and lead to biodiversity losses. These events may exacerbate stress on plants and animals, affecting their survival and resilience. Understanding these impacts is vital for predicting shifts in ecosystem structure and function, prompting the need for adaptive management strategies to support affected species. Moreover, insights gained from such studies inform conservation planning, ensuring ecosystems can thrive despite changing climatic conditions.
