Algorithms and Applications in Grass Growth Monitoring

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
Monitoring vegetation phonology using satellite data has been an area of growing research interest in recent decades. Validation is an essential issue in land surface phenology study at large scale.

Annual survival in a dynamic species: pronghorn survival patterns across their northern range

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Quantifying variation in demographic patterns, such as survival and recruitment, is critical for understanding population dynamics and informing evidence‐based and adaptive wildlife management. In this study, we leverage an extensive dataset from over 1000 GPS collared pronghorn Antilocapra americana to provide the first large‐scale evaluation of ...

From low to high elevations, flowers adapt traits and phenology to climate, but phenology‐trait relationships weak

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Flowering phenology is central to plant reproductive success and can relate to morphological traits such as size and quality of flowers, but phenology–trait associations of flowers remain unclear.

Below the leaves: Integrating above‐ and below‐ground phenology for earth‐system predictability

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Almost every aspect of biological systems has phenology—a pattern in activity or function linked to annual cycles. Most terrestrial phenology research focusses on leaves, the onset of leaf out or senescence.

Phenological Gardens Protocol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The purpose of this resource is to observe the flowering and leaf stages of selected garden plants throughout the year. After a phenological garden is planted, students observe the growth of leaves and blooming of flowers on the plants. These plants were

To converge or diverge? Phenological shifts driven by plant genome size and functional traits under nitrogen deposition and mowing

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Linkages between genome size (GS) and phenology underscore the diversification of functional traits, which are indicative of life‐history and resource acquisition strategies.

Biodiversity climate change impacts report card technical paper:10. Implications of climate change for coastal and inter-tidal habitats in the UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Executive summary - Coastal habitats are complex, dynamic and interdependent. They are important in providing sea defences, areas for recreation, biodiversity and a range of other ecosystem services.

Environmental drivers of metapopulation dynamics throughout the full annual cycle in a declining Arctic‐nesting migratory herbivore

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We provide a framework for extending commonly used integrated population models to a metapopulation framework for testing novel ecological hypotheses about how changing environmental conditions within and among subpopulations drive changes in animal abundance.

Evaluating Remote Sensing Metrics for Land Surface Phenology in Peatlands

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Vegetation phenology is an important indicator of climate change and ecosystem productivity. However, the monitoring of vegetation generative phenology through remote sensing techniques does not allow for species-specific retrieval in mixed ecosystems; hence, land surface phenology (LSP) is used instead of traditional plant phenology based on plant ...
