Discussion
In our study, ensemble models were developed for A. annua . With
good accuracy, potential distributions were simulated and suitable
habitats were estimated under present and future climate scenarios. The
simulations indicated that the mean temperature of driest quarter was
the dominant bioclimatic variable. It also showed that a huge change
both on its range and location which would be caused by climate change.
This result clearly pointed out that this herb would be dramatically
influenced by climate change. Its future conservation and utilization
must consider the impact of climate change.
