...Several studies (e.g. Angert et al., 2005; Buermann et al., 2013) showed that there would be trade-offs between seasonal responses of vegetation to temperature change, for example, earlier spring onset accompanied with weaker summer uptake....

...Recently, Buitenwerf et al. (2015) and Fu et al. (2015) have analysed worldwide leaf phenology data and have indicated that the impact of phenological changes on ecosystem functions differs among regions and varies through time. Such monitoring has also been conducted by means of satellite remote sensing, which now provides up to 30 yr of global data (e.g. Zhu et al., 2013). In addition to monitoring by optical images, flux measurements by the eddy covariance method have been providing novel and rigorous evidence about terrestrial ecosystem functions, including their seasonality. For example, Piao et al. (2008) have shown that in northern ecosystems, autumn warming would result in increases of net carbon release as a result of enhanced respiratory emissions....

...Most of the previous studies investigating seasonal variability in the northern ecosystem carbon fluxes have relied on observations of atmospheric CO2 concentrations (Angert et al., 2005; Buermann et al., 2013; Keeling et al., 1996; Piao et al., 2008; e.g. Randerson et al., 1999)....

...…start of season or SOS) has been shown to increase annual net ecosystem production and decrease peak summer productivity in North American forests (Buermann et al., 2013; Keenan et al., 2014; Richardson et al., 2010) and, in some cases, can offset large decreases in midseason primary production…...
