Extreme Temperatures: The Impact of Heat and Drought on Forests in Europe and North America

Severe drought and record summer temperatures are causing unprecedented stress on forest ecosystems in Europe and North America, with 50% of EU and UK territory facing precipitation deficits. The European Drought Observatory has warned that the combination of drought, heat stress, fire risk, and pests has already affected up to 73 million hectares, causing massive forest mortality and leaf loss in trees across Western and Central Europe. Urban areas are also suffering from extreme heat waves, affecting air quality and population well-being. The Unece is developing innovative methodologies to monitor forest damage and member states are transitioning to proactive management, investing in urban green infrastructure and reforms for sustainable wood use.
