Growth models can be used to assess forest vulnerability to climate warming. If global
warming amplifies water deficit in drought‐prone areas, tree populations located at the driest …

Warmer and drier climatic conditions are projected for the 21st century; however, the role
played by extreme climatic events on forest vulnerability is still little understood. For …

The spring phenology of plants in temperate regions strongly responds to spring
temperatures. Climate warming has caused substantial phenological advances in the past …

Plant phenology is a sensitive indicator of the effects of global change on terrestrial
ecosystems and controls the timing of key ecosystem functions including photosynthesis and …

Climate drivers of plant phenology in the subtropics and tropics are still unclear, which
significantly hinders accurate prediction of climate change impacts on vegetation growth and …

The increasing duration and intensity of drought is precipitating widespread episodes of
forest decline around the world, possibly in combination with other climatic (eg soil water …

Climate change affects the timing of phenological events, such as the start, end, and length
of the growing season of vegetation. A better understanding of how the phenology …

Monitoring the spring green-up date (GUD) has grown in importance for crop management
and food security. However, most satellite-based GUD models are associated with a high …

It has been predicted that environmental changes will radically alter the selective pressures
on phenological traits. Long‐lived species, such as trees, will be particularly affected, as …

In temperate trees, the timings of plant growth onset and cessation affect biogeochemical
cycles, water, and energy balance. Currently, phenological studies largely focus on specific …
