Changes in seasonal timing affect species and ecosystem response to environmental change. Observations of plant and animal phenology as well as remote sensing and modeling studies document complex interactions and raise many open questions.
We invite contributions with cross-disciplinary perspectives that address seasonality changes based on recent plant and animal phenological observations, pollen monitoring, historical documentary sources, or seasonality measurements using climate data, remote sensing, flux measurements or modeling studies. Contributions across all spatial and temporal scales are welcome that compare and integrate seasonality changes, study effects of long-term climate change or single extreme events, emphasize applications and phenology informed decision-making, discuss species interactions and decoupling, advance our understanding of how seasonality change affects carbon budgets and atmosphere/biosphere feedbacks, and integrate phenology into Earth System Models.
We emphasize phenology informed applications for decision-making and environmental assessment, public health, agriculture and forest management, mechanistic understanding of the phenological processes, and effects of changing phenology on biomass production and carbon budgets. We also welcome contributions addressing international collaboration and program-building initiatives including citizen science networks and data analyses.
This session is organized by a consortium representing the International Society of Biometeorology (Phenology Commission), the Pan-European Phenology Network - PEP 725, the Swiss Academy of Science SCNAT, the TEMPO French Phenology Network and the USA National Phenology Network.

About the Pan European Phenology Project PEP725
PEP725 (the successor of the COST Action 725) is a project funded by ZAMG, the Austrian ministry for science & research bm:w_f and EUMETNET (the network of European meteorological services) - with the goal to establish an open access database with plant phenology data sets for science, research and education.
The main objective of PEP725 is to:
promote and facilitate phenological research by delivering a pan European phenological database with an open, unrestricted data access for science, research and education (Data_Use_Policy)
So far 20 European meteorological services and 7 partners from different phenological network operators have joined PEP725.
Upcoming events:
Phenology 2022, 20-24 June 2022, Avignon, France
We are pleased to inform you that the international “PHENOLOGY 2022 - Phenology at the crossroads” conference will be held 20-24 June 2022 in Avignon, France.
Registration and abstract submission are now open - check the conference website for latest news!
Climate change is modifying the phenological cycle of many species, directly affecting the functioning of agroecosystems, species distributions and the feedback between the biosphere to the atmosphere. Phenology has become an important topic for many societal and economic issues. As a result, the community working on phenology has expanded considerably over the past 20 years, integrating other actors than scientists through participatory research action programs. Phenology also gained interest from an increasing range of scientific disciplines (functional and evolutionary ecology, physiology, agronomy, genetics, climatology, remote sensing, aerobiology…).
For these reasons, we want to emphasize during this conference the fact that phenology is now at the crossroads of many different disciplines and actors, all working to provide solutions to the main challenge that the society has to face, e.g, climate change adaptation and mitigation.
Further updates and details will be provided on the conference website. Practical issues related to the pandemic situation will be carefully considered (on site, virtual or hybrid).
Please mark your calendars and spread the word!
Warm regards,

Note: Phenology
Phenology is the study of the timing of recurring biological events in the animal and plant world. Leaf unfolding and flowering of plants in spring, fruit ripening, colour changing and leaf fall in autumn, as well as the appearance and departure of migrating birds and the timing of animal breeding are all examples.
