Temperate broadleaf and mixed forests cover 7.5 million square kilometers. They include the mixed deciduous forests (China, U.S., Japan), the broadleaf evergreen forests (Japan, China, New Zealand), and the hard-leaf (sclerophyll) forests (Mediterranean and California). Many are impacted by fire, and few old-growth forest groves remain because of human use. They supply humans with hardwoods, chestnuts, and mushrooms, watershed protection, genetic reserves for tree plantation species, and recreation.
