A larger part of the rainforest is at risk of crossing a tipping point where it could become a savanna-type ecosystem than previously thought. A research team explored the resilience of tropical rainforests by looking at two questions: what if all the forests in the tropics disappeared, where would they grow back? And its inverse: what happens if rainforests covered the entire tropical region of Earth?<br />
