Earth's climate is changing rapidly and heading to a state without historical precedent. By the end of this century our planet is expected to warm by several degrees Celsius, altering our biological and anthropogenic systems, and challenging planning and adaptation. However, it is possible to prepare for novel futures by looking deeper into the past, to compare projected climate changes to various geological analogs, by understanding why novel ecosystems have emerged in the past, and by understanding how vegetation distributions were regulated by climate before widespread Euro-American land use. Here, we identify the closest geological analogs for future climates, examine the climatic drivers of vegetation novelty during the last deglaciation, and analyze the environmental sensitivities of settlement-era forest ecosystem distributions across eastern North America.
