Phenology as a strategy for carbon optimality: a global model [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2014 Phenology is essential to our understanding of biogeochemical cycles and the climate system. We develop a global mechanistic model of leaf phenology based on the hypothesis that phenology is a strategy for optimal carbon gain at the canopy level so that ...

Phenology forcing model to estimate phenology shifting ability of extreme environmental events
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 The current study considered the climate extreme index (CEI) values originated from extreme environmental events (EEEs) by following the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) guidelines. The EEEs were fractionated into six sub-categories

Estimating phenology and phenological shifts with hierarchical modeling
Ecology, 2023 AbstractClimate‐driven changes to phenology are some of the most prevalent climate change impacts, yet there is no commonly accepted approach to modeling phenological shifts. Here, we present a hierarchical modeling framework for estimating intra‐annual patterns in phenology (e.g., peak phenological expression) and analyzing interannual rates of change

BugTalk: Online Prediction for the Life of Spodoptera Litura (Common Cutworm)
IEEE Access, 2022 Due to climate change, Spodoptera litura has the potential to become an increasingly severe pest because of increased habitat suitability. To support precision agriculture, it is essential to accurately predict the life cycle of Spodoptera litura, and ...

Agriculture, 2023 Many pests damage pea crops, which potentially leads to reduced quality and yield losses. Since pests occur at different phenological growth stages of pea crops, the prediction of growth stages, for example as BBCH stages, is beneficial.

Process-oriented models of autumn leaf phenology: ways to sound calibration and implications of uncertain projections [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2023 Autumn leaf phenology marks the end of the growing season, during which trees assimilate atmospheric CO2. The length of the growing season is affected by climate change because autumn phenology responds to climatic conditions.
