The ongoing phenological changes in vegetation on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau could
modify land surface and atmospheric processes. In this Review, we summarize these …

Abstract The Pan European Phenology (PEP) project is a European infrastructure to
promote and facilitate phenological research, education, and environmental monitoring. The …

Chapter 2, building on prior assessments, provides a global assessment of the observed
impacts and projected risks of climate change to terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems …

A paper published in Global Change Biology in 2006 revealed that phenological responses
in 1971–2000 matched the warming pattern in Europe, but a lack of chilling and adaptation …

Large changes in biodiversity are expected to occur if climate change continues at its current
pace. Adverse effects include changes in species habitats and compositions, and …

The reasons for concern framework communicates scientific understanding about risks in
relation to varying levels of climate change. The framework, now a cornerstone of the IPCC …

Global change has become a central focus of modern biology. Yet, our knowledge of how
anthropogenic drivers affect biodiversity and natural resources is limited by a lack of …

Recent warming significantly advanced leaf onset in the northern hemisphere. This signal
cannot be accurately reproduced by current models parameterized by daily mean …

Species across a wide range of taxa and habitats are shifting phenological events in
response to climate change. While advances are common, shifts vary in magnitude and …

The topics assessed in this chapter were last assessed by the IPCC in 2007, principally in
WGII AR4 Chapters 3 (Kundzewicz et al., 2007) and 4 (Fischlin et al., 2007), but also in WGII …
