Duke University botanists warn warmer drier conditions could drive ecological change across the northern Great Plains within a century. Grasslands may spread east into woodlands, increasing wildfires as forests weakened by aridity give way to prairie.

Grounded by ongoing testing, the scientific world debates the claim without closure.
