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