Supercomputers demonstrate climate change adversely affects mountain forests in European Alps
Mountain forests in the Alps react very differently but noticeably to a warmer climate. Even if the target of limiting the Earth’s average temperature increase to 2 degrees were met, this would already prove too much of a challenge for some mountain forests. This is the result of computer simulations by researchers at ETH Zurich. [...]
