Autumn phenology of tree species in China is associated more with climate than with spring phenology and phylogeny [PDF]
Both biotic and abiotic factors restrict changes in autumn phenology, yet their effects remain ambiguous, which hinders the accurate prediction of phenology under future climate change. In this study, based on the phenological records of 135 tree species

Diagnose the dominant climate factors and periods of spring phenology in Qinling Mountains, China
The important effect of climate factors on spring phenology has been confirmed by numerous studies, but its temporal variation remains unclear. Based on the daily meteorological observation data and annual vegetation phenology data from 1987 to 2016 ...

Warming Events Advance or Delay Spring Phenology by Affecting Bud Dormancy Depth in Trees [PDF]
The frequency of sudden, strong warming events is projected to increase in the future. The effects of such events on spring phenology of trees might depend on their timing because spring warming has generally been shown to advance spring budburst while ...

Migration distance affects how closely Eurasian wigeons follow spring phenology during migration [PDF]
Background The timing of migration for herbivorous migratory birds is thought to coincide with spring phenology as emerging vegetation supplies them with the resources to fuel migration, and, in species with a capital breeding strategy also provides ...

Climatic warming has advanced spring phenology across the Northern Hemisphere, but the spatial variability in temperature sensitivity of spring phenology is substantial. Whether spring phenology will continue to advance uniformly at latitudes has not yet

Temperature and precipitation are the primary regulators of vegetation phenology in temperate zones. However, the relative contributions of each factor and their underlying combined effect on vegetation phenology are much less clear, especially for the ...

Seasonal Coat Colour Moult and Mismatch in Ezo Mountain Hares (Lepus timidus ainu): Phenotypic Plasticity and Snow Cover Effects in Hokkaido, Japan [PDF]
Seasonal coat colour (SCC) moult has evolved in numerous species to maintain camouflage in contrasting seasonal environments. Variations in snow cover patterns, particularly shifts in the timing and duration of snow cover, increase challenges for coat ...

Vegetation phenology plays a key role in terrestrial ecosystem nutrient and carbon cycles and is sensitive to global climate change. Compared with spring phenology, which has been well studied, autumn phenology is still poorly understood.

Influences of Shifted Vegetation Phenology on Runoff Across a Hydroclimatic Gradient
Climate warming has changed vegetation phenology, and the phenology-associated impacts on terrestrial water fluxes remain largely unquantified. The impacts are linked to plant adjustments and responses to climate change and can be different in different ...
