TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared phenology (the timing of recurring life history events) in observational studies and warming experiments spanning four continents and 1,634 plant species using a common measure of temperature sensitivity (change in days per degree Celsius).
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting phenology by integrating ecology, evolution and climate science
Stephanie Pau,Elizabeth M. Wolkovich,Benjamin I. Cook,T. Jonathan Davies,Nathan J. B. Kraft,Kjell Bolmgren,Julio L. Betancourt,Elsa E. Cleland +7 more
TL;DR: This work outlines how merging approaches from ecology, climate science and evolutionary biology can advance research on phenological responses to climate variability and predicts that species occupying higher latitudes or the early growing season should be most sensitive to climate and have the most phylogenetically conserved phenologies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenological tracking enables positive species responses to climate change
Elsa E. Cleland,Jenica M. Allen,Theresa M. Crimmins,Jennifer A. Dunne,Stephanie Pau,Steven E. Travers,Erika S. Zavaleta,Elizabeth M. Wolkovich +7 more
TL;DR: Test the hypothesis that phenological sensitivity could be used to predict species performance in a warming climate, by synthesizing results across terrestrial warming experiments and found that species that advanced their phenology with warming also increased their performance, whereas those that did not advance tended to decline in performance with warming.

Phylogenetic conservatism in plant phenology
T. Jonathan Davies,Elizabeth M. Wolkovich,Nathan J. B. Kraft,Nicolas Salamin,Nicolas Salamin,Jenica M. Allen,Toby R. Ault,Julio L. Betancourt,Kjell Bolmgren,Kjell Bolmgren,Elsa E. Cleland,Benjamin I. Cook,Benjamin I. Cook,Theresa M. Crimmins,Susan J. Mazer,Gregory J. McCabe,Stephanie Pau,Jim Regetz,Mark D. Schwartz,Steven E. Travers +19 more
TL;DR: Evidence for phylogenetic conservatism – the tendency for closely related species to share similar ecological and biological attributes – in phenological traits across flowering plants is evaluated and it is illustrated that it is not the time of year that is conserved, but rather the phenological responses to a common set of abiotic cues.
Journal ArticleDOI
When Do Ecosystem Services Depend on Rare Species
TL;DR: Different ways that ecosystem services can positively depend on the presence, abundance, disproportionate contribution or, counterintuitively, the scarcity of rare species are reviewed.
