A Conceptual Framework for Winter Dormancy in Deciduous Trees
The perennial life strategy of temperate trees relies on establishing a dormant stage during winter to survive unfavorable conditions. To overcome this dormant stage, trees require cool (i.e., chilling) temperatures as an environmental cue.

“60 Years on”—Effects of Climatic Change on Tree Phenology—A Case Study Using Pome Fruit
Phenological records of apple and pear trees, including flowering, harvest and leaf drop, and concomitant weather records at Klein-Altendorf (50° N) near Bonn, Germany were correlated using two approaches: (a) linear curve fitting and (b) comparison of ...

Photosynthetic responses to chilling in a chilling‐tolerant and chilling‐sensitive
AbstractMiscanthusis a C4perennial grass being developed for bioenergy production in temperate regions where chilling events are common. To evaluate chilling effects onMiscanthus,we assessed the processes controlling net CO2assimilation rate (A) inMiscanthus x giganteus(M161) and a chilling‐sensitiveMiscanthushybrid (M115) before and after a chilling ...

Spring warming could induce earlier leaf-out or flowering of temperate plant species, and decreased chilling in winter has a delaying effect on spring phenology. However, the relative contribution of the decreased chilling and increased forcing on spring

Chilling accumulation pattern analysis of Iran cold regions based on CH models،Utah،CP [PDF]
Chilling accumulation in dormancy period for deciduous fruit tree is of very high importance. Failure to meet this chilling requirement reduces the performance and results in the loss of resources.

The chilling effect and the most ancient form of vengeance:discrimination and victimising third parties [PDF]
The recent Equality Act 2010 includes a revised definition of “victimisation”, which (in the Act’s most litigated field of employment) prohibits employers from victimising workers who use the legislation.

Chilling tendency and chill of cast iron
Abstract An analytical expression is presented for the susceptibility of liquid cast iron to solidify according to the Fe-C-X metastable system (also known as the chilling tendency of cast iron, CT). The analysis incorporates the nucleation and growth processes associated with the eutectic transformation.
