INTRODUCTION Global climate change is challenging many forested ecosystems with elevated temperatures and increasingly severe and frequent droughts, heat waves and outbreaks of biotic agents (Chou et al., 2013; Davy et al., 2017; Harvey et al., 2020; IPCC, 2022; Meehl & Tebaldi, 2004; Pureswaran et al., 2018).

AbstractSubalpine forests worldwide face the synergistic threats of global warming and increased biotic attack and in south-eastern Australia, the collapse or transition of subalpine forests is predicted under future climates. The recent widespread dieback of subalpine snow gum forests due to increased activity of a native wood-boring longicorn beetle suggests this process may already be underway.
