Special Issue on Tropical Islands and Biodiversity

Tropical islands, often referred to as "the jewels of the Earth," are known for their unique ecosystems and rich biodiversity. Research on tropical islands and biodiversity is a multidisciplinary field that examines the interactions between island ecosystems and the diverse life forms they support. This research has profound implications for understanding the distribution and evolution of species, as well as for conservation efforts. The goal of this special issue is to provide a platform for scientists and academicians all over the world to promote, share, and discuss various new issues and developments in this area of Tropical Islands and Biodiversity.

In this special issue, we invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles that explore Tropical Islands and Biodiversity. In this special issue, potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Island Biogeography
• Ecosystem Function and Services
• Conservation Biology
• Plant and Animal Diversity
• Freshwater Ecosystems
• Marine and Coastal Biodiversity
• Human Impacts and Adaptation
• Genetic Diversity and Evolution

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue - Tropical Islands and Biodiversity” should be selected during your submission.
