DOI: 10.1002/2016gb005615
Abstract: A coupled global numerical simulation (conducted with the Community Earth System Model) is used in conjunction with satellite remote sensing observations to examine the role of top-down (grazing pressure) and bottom-up (light, nutrients) controls on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/2017jg003949
Abstract: Vegetation phenology is a sensitive indicator of climate change and has significant effects on the exchange of carbon, water, and energy between the terrestrial biosphere and the atmosphere. The Tibetan Plateau, the Earth’s “third pole,”… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1091
Abstract: PREMISE OF THE STUDY Changes to plant phenology have been linked to warmer temperatures caused by climate change. Despite the importance of the groundlayer to community and forest dynamics, few warming experiments have focused on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1205
Abstract: PREMISE OF THE STUDY Flowering initiation, duration and magnitude, and degree of flowering synchrony within a population can affect the reproductive fitness of individuals. We examined the flowering phenology within a population of the tropical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1344
Abstract: PREMISE Flexible phenological responses of invasive plants under climate change may increase their ability to establish and persist. A key aspect of plant phenology is the timing of root production, how it coincides with canopy… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1540
Abstract: PREMISE Defense investment in plant reproductive structures is relatively understudied compared to the defense of vegetative organs. Here the evolution of chemical defenses in reproductive structures is examined in light of the optimal defense, apparency,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16123
Abstract: PREMISE OF THE STUDY Changes to flowering time caused by climate change could impact plant fecundity, but studies that compare the individual-level responses of phenologically distinct, co-occurring species are lacking. We assessed how variation in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/aps3.1225
Abstract: Premise of the Study Herbarium specimens are increasingly used to study reproductive phenology. Here, we ask whether classifying reproduction into progressively finer‐scale stages improves our understanding of the relationship between climate and reproductive phenology. Methods… read more here.
