Deciphering the multiple effects of climate warming on the temporal shift of leaf unfolding

Haicheng Zhang et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates the antagonistic and heterogeneous effects of winter chilling and spring thermal accumulation on leaf phenology, with the latter having a greater explanation (61% versus 39%) for advancement in leaf unfolding.

Spring phenology in subtropical trees: Developing process-based models on an experimental basis

Rui Zhang et al.

Summary: Process-based phenological models are important for studying the timing of spring phenological events in trees. However, these models are often formulated solely based on observational records, neglecting the physiological processes. This study introduces a framework for developing process-based phenological models using experiments and applies it to four subtropical tree species.

Climate warming prolongs the time interval between leaf-out and flowering in temperate trees: Effects of chilling, forcing and photoperiod

Qianqian Ma et al.

Summary: This study examined the responses of leaf-out and flowering of four common temperate tree species to climate warming using long-term phenological records in Europe. The results showed that the time interval between leaf-out and flowering increased from 1950 to 2013, with the first event advancing more than the second. The unequal advances of the two events may alter resource partitioning and spring frost damage, affecting species fitness and ecosystem structure and function.

Chilled to be forced: the best dose to wake up buds from winter dormancy

Frederik Baumgarten et al.

Summary: This study assessed the progress of winter dormancy and the efficiency of different chilling temperatures in six dominant temperate European tree species. The results showed that freezing temperatures were most effective for some species and had similar effects as chilling temperatures up to 10 degrees C for others, leading to minimum thermal time to budburst. Interestingly, chilling duration had a larger effect on dormancy release than absolute chilling temperature.

PhenoFlex - an integrated model to predict spring phenology in temperate fruit trees

Eike Luedeling et al.

Summary: A new dormancy model named PhenoFlex was developed, which combines the Dynamic Model for chill accumulation with the Growing-Degree-Hours model for heat accumulation in a flexible manner. Compared to several benchmark models, PhenoFlex showed superior predictive performance in projecting bloom dates for apples and pears.

A simple explanation for declining temperature sensitivity with warming

E. M. Wolkovich et al.

Summary: The decline in phenological sensitivities with higher temperatures may be an artifact of using linear models to estimate non-linear temperature responses. Correcting for the non-linear temperature responses consistently removes this apparent decline, indicating no underlying biological shift is occurring despite rising temperatures. The current methods may hinder efforts to accurately predict how warming will reshape biological processes.
