Australian Forests Could Take a Long Time to Recover from 'Black Summer' Bushfires: Study

News 18  

A new study published on Thursday revealed “massive concerns” about the long-term recovery of Australian forests from the devastating 2019-20 “Black Summer” bushfires. The study, which was published by Australian National University and Griffith University, warned that early signs of recovery from the fires could be deceiving, reports Xinhua news agency. “It’s wonderful to see the green growth back in the forests,” said co-author David Lindenmayer from ANU. “There’s a big risk now the wetter forests across huge swathes of Victoria and southern NSW won’t be able to recover,” Lindenmayer said.
