What is biogeography?

Biogeography is the scientific study of the distribution of organisms and their patterns in space and time, as well as the processes that shape these distributions. It incorporates concepts from biology, geography, ecology, and evolutionary biology to understand how organisms are distributed across different geographic areas, and how they have evolved and adapted to their environments. Biogeographers examine factors such as climate, physical barriers, historical events, and ecological interactions to explain patterns of species distribution and biodiversity across different regions of the Earth.
