Warming and precipitation addition interact to affect plant spring phenology in alpine meadows on the central Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, 2020
Temperature and precipitation are primary regulators of plant phenology. However, our knowledge of how these factors might interact to affect plant phenology is incomplete.

Climate-associated changes in spring plant phenology in China

International Journal of Biometeorology, 2011
The timing of phenological events is highly responsive to global environmental change, and shifts in a phenological phase can affect terrestrial ecosystems, agriculture and economics. We analyzed changes in phenology for the spring season in China that occurred between the 1960's and the 2000's using four methods: species-level observations, meta ...

Diverse responses of spring phenology to preseason drought and warming under different biomes in the North China Plain.

Science of the Total Environment, 2020
Global-change-type drought, a combination of drought and warmer temperatures, is projected to have severe effects on vegetation growth and ecosystem functions. Spring phenology is an important biological indicator to understand the response of vegetation

Phenology of Spring Weeds in Norman, Oklahoma

The Southwestern Naturalist, 1956
Weed calendars were kept for January-May 1954 and 1955, involving 75 species, more than half native. Details are given for the 25 most abundant. Percentage of those initiating flowering reached a peak in April; of those actually in bloom, about mid-May.

Effects of Microclimate on Spring Flowering Phenology

Ecology, 1966
Sixteen microclimatic stations with differences in slope, exposure, vegetation cover, and seasonal change were established in a heavily dissected 180—acre Indiana tract. Correlations, based on cumulative air temperature duration—summations, were made between microclimatic differences and variation in phenological events.

Assessing spring phenology of a temperate woodland: A multiscale comparison of ground, unmanned aerial vehicle and Landsat satellite observations

Remote Sensing of Environment, 2019
The monitoring of forest phenology in a cost-effective manner, at a fine spatial scale and over relatively large areas remains a significant challenge.

The influence of local spring temperature variance on temperature sensitivity of spring phenology

Global Change Biology, 2014
AbstractThe impact of climate warming on the advancement of plant spring phenology has been heavily investigated over the last decade and there exists great variability among plants in their phenological sensitivity to temperature. However, few studies have explicitly linked phenological sensitivity to local climate variance.

Impacts of preseason drought on vegetation spring phenology across the Northeast China Transect.

Science of the Total Environment, 2020
Vegetation phenology is undergoing profound changes in response to the recent increases in the intensity and frequency of drought events. However, the mechanisms by which drought affects the start of the growing season (SGS) are poorly understood ...

Extreme spring conditions in the Arctic delay spring phenology of long-distance migratory songbirds

Oecologia, 2017
Arctic regions are warming rapidly, with extreme weather events increasing in frequency, duration, and intensity just as in other regions. Many studies have focused on how shifting seasonality in environmental conditions affects vegetation phenology, while far fewer have examined how the breeding phenology of arctic fauna responds.

Decoupling of bird migration from the changing phenology of spring green-up

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Significance Spring vegetation green-up generates important food resources for many migratory animals, provided the timing of green-up matches the timing of migration.
