Prediction of potentially suitable areas for the introduction of Magnolia wufengensis under climate change

Magnolia wufengensis, a new species of the subgenus Magnolia, has extremely high ornamental and scientific value due to its rich morphological diversity. The wild population of M. wufengensis has a narrow habitat and a sparse population, and is in a critically endangered state. Currently, the potent...

Currently, the potential suitable areas for the introduction of M. wufengensis and the limiting factors affecting its distribution and the response to global warming are unclear. Hence, an optimized MaxEnt model in the ENMeval package based on 49 M. wufengensis occurrence records and 16 environmental variables were used to simulate the potential suitable areas for M. wufengensis under current and future (2041–2080) climate change scenarios, including four representative concentration pathways (RCP2.6, RCP4.5, RCP6.0 and RCP8.5), to provide a scientific basis for the precise introduction, cultivation and expansion of suitable areas of M. wufengensis.

The results indicated that the mean temperature of the coldest quarter (-6.75–14.31 °C), mean diurnal range (≤14.29 °C), min temperature of the coldest month (-13.73–10.77 °C), mean temperature of the warmest quarter (≥12.93 °C), precipitation of the wettest month (40.99–715.42 mm) and annual mean temperature (4.47–24.56 °C) were the most important environmental variables (threshold) limiting the distribution of suitable areas for M. wufengensis. In the current climate, areas of 146.15 × 104 km2, 119.88 × 104 km2 and 224.87 × 104 km2 were projected as potential areas with high, medium, and low suitability for M. wufengensis, respectively. These areas were mainly located in eastern and central Asia, the Mediterranean coast of southern Europe, and western America. Under future climate change, the potential suitable areas for M. wufengensis in the world will be greatly reduced, and the degree of fragmentation will increase.
