Phenology refers to recurring plant and animal life cycle stages,
such as leafing and flowering, maturation of agricultural plants,
emergence of insects, and migration of birds. It is also the study
of these recurring events, especially their timing and
relationships with weather and climate. Phenological phenomena all
give a ready measure of the environment as viewed by the associated
organism, and are thus ideal indicators of the impact of local and
global changes in weather and climate on the earth's biosphere.
Assessing our changing world is a complex task that requires close
cooperation from experts in biology, climatology, ecology,
geography, oceanography, remote sensing, and other areas. Like its
predecessor, this second edition of Phenology is a synthesis of
current phenological knowledge, designed as a primer on the field
for global change and general scientists, students, and interested
members of the public. With updated and new contributions from over
fifty phenological experts, covering data collection, current
research, methods, and applications, it demonstrates the
accomplishments, progress over the last decade, and future
potential of phenology as an integrative environmental science.
