Increasingly severe disturbances weaken world's temperate forests

Longer, more severe, and hotter droughts and a myriad of other 
threats, including diseases and more extensive and severe wildfires, 
are threatening to transform some of the world's temperate forests, a 
new study published in Science has found. Without informed 
management, some forests could convert to shrublands or grasslands 
within the coming decades.

  "We illustrate how forest harvesting has substantially increased the 
frequency of the largest floods in all study sites regardless of 
record length and this also runs counter to the prevailing wisdom in 
hydrological science."
