Plant phenology is strongly controlled by climate and has consequently become one of the most reliable bioindicators of ongoing climate change. We used a dataset of more than 200 …
Phenology is the study of recurring biological events and its relationship to climate. Circular statistics is an area of statistics not very much used by ecologists nor by other researchers …
Understanding the effects of warming trends, genetics, and management on crop phenology is crucial for adaptation against the increasing trend in temperature in the upcoming …
One possible effect of climate change is the generation of a mismatch in the seasonal timing of interacting organisms, owing to species‐specific shifts in phenology. Despite concerns …
