This study shows that temperature effects on autumn phenology of European beech reverse after the summer solstice due to developmental constraints, with nighttime cooling delaying bud set and daytime cooling advancing phenology.

The paper quantifies how forest cooling effects on land surface temperatures have increased with climate change, emphasizing the need to protect forests as temperatures rise.

This study shows that rising temperatures reduce leaf-out and flowering synchrony in plants by up to 55%, with genetic differences explaining part of the variation.
