A longer vernal window: The role of winter coldness and snowpack in driving spring thresholds and lags [PDF]
, 2017 Climate change is altering the timing and duration of the vernal window, a period that marks the end of winter and the start of the growing season when rapid transitions in ecosystem energy, water, nutrient, and carbon dynamics take place.

Phenology of alpine zooplankton populations and the importance of lake ice-out
Journal of Plankton Research, 2020 AbstractThe prolonged ice cover inherent to alpine lakes incurs unique challenges for aquatic life, which are compounded by recent shifts in the timing and duration of ice cover. To understand the responses of alpine zooplankton, we analyzed a decade (2009–2019) of open-water samples of Daphnia pulicaria and Hesperodiaptomus shoshone for growth ...

Ice phenology interactions with water and air temperatures in high mountain lakes
Science of The Total EnvironmentIce phenology is of great importance for the thermal structure of lakes and ponds and the biology of lake species. Under the current climate change conditions, ice-cover duration has been reduced by an advance in ice-off, and a delay in ice-on, and future projections foresee this trend as continuing.
