Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Geophysical Research Letters"
DOI: 10.1029/2020gl087942
Abstract: Arctic summer temperatures mostly cooled over the last ~7 kyr, owing to decreasing summer insolation. However, knowledge of the winter season is limited in the Arctic paleoclimate literature. Here we develop a composite record of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-025-60926-8
Abstract: The Arctic is at the forefront of global climate change and is encountering unprecedented winter warming. In February 2025, exceptionally high air temperatures and rainfall over Svalbard triggered widespread snowmelt and pooling of meltwater. Increasingly… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41558-020-0838-5
Abstract: Marine ecosystems are under increasing threat from warming waters. Winter warming is occurring at a faster rate than summer warming for ecosystems around the world, but most studies focus on the summer. Here, we show… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-68847-0
Abstract: The application of exogenous paclobutrazol (PP333) can improve the ability of winter warming to promote flowering in Chaenomeles speciosa, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. In this study, the cultivar ‘Changshouguan’ was sprayed with different… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2204355119
Abstract: Significance In temperate climates many plant species use long-term detection of winter chilling as a seasonal cue. Previously the timing of flowering in winter annual plants has been shown to be controlled by the promotion… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jpe/rtae037
Abstract: Asymmetric seasonal warming, characterized by more pronounced temperature increases in winter than in summer, has become a critical feature of global warming, especially in cold and high-altitude regions. Previous studies have primarily focused on year-round… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1365-2435.12703
Abstract: Summary Winter is a period of dormancy for plants of cold environments. However, winter climate is changing, leading to an increasing frequency of stochastic warm periods (winter warming events) and concomitant reductions in snow cover.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.16358
Abstract: Winter temperature‐related chilling and spring temperature‐related forcing are two major environmental cues shaping the leaf‐out date of temperate species. To what degree insufficient chilling caused by winter warming would slow phenological responses to spring warming… read more here.
