phenological-shifts-and-range-change

2 articles

Phenological shifts refer to changes in the timing of recurring biological events — such as flowering, leafing, and fruiting — while range change describes the geographic movement of plant populations in response to altered environmental conditions. As climate patterns change, plants are flowering earlier, extending growing seasons, and shifting their distributions toward higher latitudes and elevations. Understanding these dynamics is critical for predicting ecosystem disruption, pollinator mismatches, and the long-term viability of plant communities under ongoing climate change.
