The relationship between land cover and biodiversity is significant, as land cover types—such as forests, wetlands, and urban areas—directly impact the diversity of species in an area. Diverse habitats tend to support a wider range of flora and fauna due to varied microclimates and resource availability. Conversely, habitat loss through urbanization and agricultural expansion leads to biodiversity decline. Understanding this relationship can inform conservation efforts, guiding land management practices that balance development with habitat protection to sustain ecological diversity and maintain ecosystem functions.
