Storm Daniel as a Case Study of Climate Change and Its Impact on the getation of the Green Mountain

Abstract

          Storm Daniel, one of the extreme weather events that struck eastern Libya in September 2023, ultimately resulted in a lack of rainfall and widespread flash floods. The Green Mountain (Jabal Akhdar) is one of the areas most affected by this storm due to its extreme characteristics and dense vegetation. This research aims to provide a natural analysis of Storm Daniel as a model for extreme weather changes and to study its impact on the plant environment of the Green Mountain in terms of erosion, soil erosion, and changes in vegetation cover suitable for plant species. The importance of this study lies in linking extreme weather events to the reality of change in local, microscopic aspects.
