disturbances weaken world's temperate forests</b></font></div>
<div><font face="Bookman Old Style"><br>
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.</font></div>

illustrate how forest harvesting has substantially increased the
