Researchers at Princeton have looked into how planting trees in mid-latitude regions—and resulting cloud cover—could help cool the planet.

Forests in the United States and other northern mid- and upper-latitude regions are playing a smaller role in offsetting global warming than previously thought, according to a study appearing in ...

Results of a decade-long study to appear in this week's issue of Science magazine show that mid-latitude forest soils lose small amounts of carbon in response to soil warming. The study further ...

Most forest biodiversity is in that zone, including in temperate, mid-latitude forests where “80 percent of all plant species grow in shade of trees.” ...

It relates primarily to boreal or colder mid-latitude forests, such as the Canadian insect outbreak over 374,000 square kilometers of forest.

Why Did The 'Great Dying' Last for Five Million Years? Science May Finally Have The Answer The Great Dying has remained a ...

It relates primarily to boreal or colder mid-latitude forests, such as the Canadian insect outbreak over 374,000 square kilometers of forest.

To show the model's potential, the team applied it to calculate the possible consequences of extreme windstorms in a mid-latitude forest in northern Minnesota. The model considered how winds have ...

Several hypotheses for how Arctic warming may be influencing mid-latitude weather patterns have been proposed recently. For example, Arctic warming could lead to a weakened jet stream. Or Arctic sea ...

Using data from satellites and models of the atmosphere, researchers examined the effects of tree planting in wet, mid-latitude regions such as the eastern United States and southeast China.
