The phrase biodiversity hotspot was coined by the British biologist Norman Myers in 1988 for a geographic region that exhibits exceptionally high proportion of endemic plants and experiences serious levels of loss in natural habitat. The word biodiversity is a contracted form of the term biological diversity. After a general acceptance of the term hotspot for locations that show exceptional characteristics, It became common to use the term in different domains of investigation. Some of the most common usages are found in the studies of environmental hotspots, hazard hotspots, disease hotspots, accident hotspots, crime hotspots, and so on. The Food and Agricultural Organization stated However it is viewed, the hotspots concept can be used to identify situations that, if left unattended, could prove harmful, both to the environment and to those dependent on it to describe an environmental hotspot. A hazard hotspot is a part of the Earth that is very dangerous.
