Graphical Abstract

Caption

Combining topographic preferences of endangered high-elevation Puya raimondii rosettes, seed dispersal distances, and future climate scenarios, we project habitat availability in the year 2100 in the Cordillera Blanca, Peru. We predict a significant decrease in occupied habitat patches, with almost complete loss for the +5°C climate change scenario.
