The research team explored 20 years of tree cover data from satellites to model future shifts. Boreal forests encircle the cold, northern regions of our planet. They host a diverse set of species ...

They found that drought caused a more pronounced phylogenetic dependence of growth patterns in temperate and tropical trees. TGPS values were higher in temperate forests than in tropical forests.
