Low‐cost observations and experiments return a high value in plant phenology research
Applications in Plant Sciences, 2020 Plant ecologists in the Anthropocene are tasked with documenting, interpreting, and predicting how plants respond to environmental change. Phenology, the timing of seasonal biological events including leaf‐out, flowering, fruiting, and leaf senescence ...

Integrating phytoplankton phenology, traits, and model‐data fusion to advance bloom prediction
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.Abstract While there is a diversity of approaches for modeling phytoplankton blooms, their accuracy in predicting the onset and manifestation of a bloom is still lagging behind what is needed to support effective management. We outline a framework that integrates trait theory and ecosystem modeling to improve bloom prediction.

Emerging patterns of CO2 : O2 dynamics in rivers and their link to ecosystem carbon processing
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.Abstract Aquatic metabolism is reflected in the dynamics of dissolved oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations. Thus, paired measurements of CO2 and O2 concentrations can capture the metabolic characteristics of an ecosystem, with promising results in lakes.

Phenological Predictability Index in BRAHMS: a tool for herbarium‐based phenological studies
Ecography, 2012 Phenological Predictability Index (PPI) is a tool for analysing phenological patterns incorporating herbarium data within BRAHMS (Botanical Research and Herbarium Management System). PPI produces a maximum‐activity period and associated event predictability index between ∼0 and 1.

Revisiting the latitudinal cline of catadromy in Japanese eels
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.Abstract Partial migration of organisms, in which only a subset of a population migrates, plays an important role in life‐history strategies and population resilience in many taxa, yet the mechanisms shaping it under changing environments need further investigation.

Revisiting the taxonomy and nomenclature of Phyla, a small genus of Verbenaceae
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Phyla is unique within Verbenaceae due to the presence of malpighiaceous hairs. Its taxonomy has long been marked by difficulties in defining species boundaries. The most recent revision of the genus recognized five species and three varieties. In this study, however, we recognize only two species and no varieties: P.

Phenological response to climatic change depends on spring warming velocity
Communications Earth & EnvironmentClimatic change is dramatically altering phenology but generalities regarding tempo and mode of response remain limited. Here we present a general model framework incorporating spring temperature, velocity of spring warming, and species’ thermal ...
