habitat-restoration
Habitat restoration is the practice of actively assisting degraded, damaged, or destroyed ecosystems in recovering their structure and function, often through reintroducing native vegetation and rehabilitating soil and hydrological conditions. For plant science, it provides a critical testing ground for understanding species establishment, competition, and community assembly in real-world settings, while also generating knowledge on propagation techniques and genetic diversity needed to rebuild resilient plant populations. This work directly supports biodiversity conservation and helps counteract the effects of habitat loss and climate change on native flora.
