Phenological shifts of abiotic events, producers and consumers across a continent
Ongoing climate change can shift organism phenology in ways that vary depending on
species, habitats and climate factors studied. To probe for large-scale patterns in associated …

Trophic level asynchrony in rates of phenological change for marine, freshwater and terrestrial environments
Recent changes in the seasonal timing (phenology) of familiar biological events have been
one of the most conspicuous signs of climate change. However, the lack of a standardized …

Shifts in phenology due to global climate change: the need for a yardstick
Climate change has led to shifts in phenology in many species distributed widely across
taxonomic groups. It is, however, unclear how we should interpret these shifts without some …

Avian population consequences of climate change are most severe for long-distance migrants in seasonal habitats
One consequence of climate change is an increasing mismatch between timing of food
requirements and food availability. Such a mismatch is primarily expected in avian long …
