Climate Change Is, Transforming Forests , Around the World.
'The Guardian' reports that forests from the Arctic
to the Amazon are being transformed at
an alarming rate as a result of the climate crisis.

Scientists have found trees growing in
previously-barren tundra while also dying off
due to rising temperatures in the south.

According to a series of studies, the composition
of forests is rapidly changing to become far
less resilient and more prone to diseases.
Scientists warn that further heating could cause
up to 50% of traditional boreal forests to die off,
while leaving many other trees stunted.
Boreal species do very poorly even
with modest warming. They grow
more slowly and have greater mortality, Peter Reich, co-author and researcher at
the University of Minnesota, via 'The Guardian'.
Given how fast climate change is,
we could get a 50 to 150-year period
where spruce and fir over thousands
of miles, including from Siberia
to Scandinavia, don’t regenerate, .., Peter Reich, co-author and researcher at
the University of Minnesota, via 'The Guardian'.
... so you’ll have this strange
new system of invasive shrubs that
won’t provide us with the economic
and ecological services we are used to, Peter Reich, co-author and researcher at
the University of Minnesota, via 'The Guardian'.
Other studies highlight
the impact of the climate crisis
on the heart of the Amazon.
Scientists have warned that the delicate
ecosystem of the rainforest is in danger
of being transformed into a savannah.

According to one study, a lack of phosphorus in
the Amazon’s soils could have “major implications”
for its resilience to rising temperatures
