The Mid-Domain Effect Shapes a Unimodal Latitudinal Pattern in Fruiting Phenology [PDF]
PlantsThe mid-domain effect (MDE) has been used to explain spatial diversity patterns and flowering phenology, but its role in fruiting phenology has received limited attention to date.

Phenological patterns of herbaceous Mediterranean plant communities in spring: is there a difference between native and formerly-cultivated grasslands? [PDF]
Plant Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Background and aims – Plant phenology, defined as the timing of recurring life events like leaf flushing, flowering, or fruiting, is highly sensitive to environmental factors such as photoperiod, temperature, and moisture.

The USA National Phenology Network's Buffelgrass Green‐up Forecast map products
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, 2021 Buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris syn. Pennisetum ciliare) was introduced to Sonoran Desert in the early 20th century and has become widespread at low elevations. This perennial bunchgrass accumulates abundant biomass that can carry fires through ecosystems

Vegetation greenness and photosynthetic phenology in response to climatic determinants
Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023 Vegetation phenology is a key indicator of vegetation-climate interactions and carbon sink changes in ecosystems. Therefore, it is very important to understand the temporal and spatial variability of vegetation phenology and the driving climatic ...

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2021 Satellite-derived phenology (or apparent phenology) is frequently used to illustrate changes in plant phenology (i.e. true phenology) and the effects of climate forcing. However, each study uses a different method to detect phenology.
