Answer and Explanation:

It is known that California's oaks Quercus douglasi and Quercus Lobata are very sensitive to change in temperature and precipitation. It is grown in Mediterranean type of climate which has most of the rainfall during winters. They are drought tolerant but experience different changes when it precipitates more. They largely depend upon soil moisture availability and due to low competition, have low incentives. They are highly sensitive to the availability of water.

Change in climate may change the color of the trees and they see shift in spatial features with climate change. There also occurs death of the trees at large number due to climate change as they are intolerant to certain environmental conditions.
