Abstract

The ecological balance hangs on the abundance of flora and fauna. The declining numbers of species can be attributed to multiple reasons such as climate change, habitat destruction and human interference. Therefore, this research aims to represent the relationship between the species and the climatic conditions of the habitat using Machine Learning Techniques and Statistical Analysis to understand the climatic conditions affecting the distribution patterns of the endemic species of Australia. As a novel approach, this research also tries to draw parallels between the warm-blooded bird species and cold blooded frog species to infer if species that inherently react differently to the climate show similar signs of decline and distribution to historic and future climate variables.
