A team of researchers in their study have concluded that up to 58 million large trees in California have faced loss of water since 2011 due to state's historic drought. Such a long duration of water shortage can be really life threatening for the trees. High temperature coupled with insect outbreaks, including the destructive bark beetle, is increasing the risk of trees dying that would trigger widespread changes in several ecosystems .[Source: Northern Californian]
