"Phenology and Climate Change" ed. by Xiaoyang Zhang

This book summarizes recent progresses in the understanding of seasonal variation in animals and plants and its correlations to climate variables. The chapters of this book offer a broad overview of phenology observations and climate impacts. This book will stimulate further developments in relation to phenology monitoring, modeling and predicting.

With the contributions of phenological scientists worldwide, this book is subdivided into sixteen chapters and sorted in four parts: animal life cycle, plant seasonality, phenology in fruit plants, and remote sensing phenology.
