1. Impact of Sea Surface Temperature and Salinity on Phytoplankton blooms phenology in the North Sea
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Various environmental forcings can affect phytoplankton blooms, resulting in changes in bloom timing and abundance, which can have many far-reaching consequences. Understanding bloom phenology is crucial to predict and counter any potential harmful changes. READ MORE

2. FLOWERING TIME DEPENDENCE ON MICROCLIMATE ACROSS AN ELEVATIONAL GRADIENT IN ARCTIC PLANT COMMUNITIES
University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Instiutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapAbstract : The Arctic is the fastest-warming region on Earth. Arctic plant communities are highly sensitive to temperature change; temperature-dependent advancement of flowering dates has already been observed in the Arctic. Flowering time is critical for reproductive success. READ MORE

3. Plant phenology and climate change : possible effect on the onset of various wild plant species first flowering day in the UK
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : The IPCC states that the planet is significantly warming due to effects of climate change. This warming effect has consequences for phenological events. Many species cannot track rapid climate change, resulting in phenological mismatches. This study looks at an extreme weather event and the longer-term effects of climate change. READ MORE

4. Vegetation phenology derived using the plant phenology index and the normalized difference vegetation index for the Balkan peninsula, south-eastern Europe
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : This study analyses the performance of the satellite derived Plant Phenology Index (PPI) against the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) for estimating start of season (SOS) and end of season (EOS) of vegetation growth in part of the Balkan Peninsula, Southeastern Europe (2000 – 2016). Results revealed that PPI and NDVI differ considerably; SOS and EOS may diverge by more than one month between the two indices. READ MORE

5. Impact of environmental variables on tundra vegetation onset of flowering explained by survival modelling
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Timing of phenological events are highly related to climate and is one of the first signs of ecosystem responses to the climate change. Timing of flowering phenology is an important trait influencing the distribution and fitness of plants species. READ MORE
