Assam: Climate history is used in fossil studies to forecast biological changes.

The discovery of fossilized Nothopegia species in Assam’s Makum coalfields sheds light on historic plant migration due to climate change. Researchers from the Birbal Sahni Institute of Palaeosciences found fossilized leaf remains of Nothopegia oligo travancorica and Nothopegia oligo castaneifolia, suggesting that these species, once widespread in northern and northeastern India, migrated southward as temperatures dropped following the Himalayan uplift. Now restricted to pockets in the Western Ghats, their survival underscores the role of low-latitude warm refuges in preserving biodiversity. Scientists warn that global warming could further threaten endemic species, leading to local extinctions.
