California’s coast redwoods, which normally grow in cool coastal zones averaging about 59 °F (15 °C), are reacting to rising temperatures. A study from the University of California, Davis found that when heat waves push temperatures above 100 °F (38 °C), the trees slow the process that nourishes them. The research highlights how extreme heat is altering the trees’ physiological functions.
