Fossils of ancient trees were found in an area that is now a desert. Based on these fossils, what can we infer about the climate and landscape of the area millions of years ago? What changes in the environment could have led to this shift from forest to desert?
Millions of years ago, the area was likely much wetter and had a more temperate or tropical climate, which supported the growth of forests with many trees. The evidence from the ancient tree fossils suggests that the area had abundant water, which is necessary for tree growth.
