Together, these results demonstrate that shifts in phenology and species ranges act synergistically to restructure the flowering seasons across the conterminous United States, revealing wide variation in the pace and direction of change among biomes.

Using millions of records, we show that phenological and range shifts affect different attributes of the season: phenological shifts primarily alter the start, end, and duration of the season; range shifts alter co-flowering diversity at seasonal peaks and the network of overlapping flowering pairs

Shifts in phenology and species ranges are likely to have distinct and synergistic effects on community-level flowering patterns. However these processes have typically been studied in isolation largely due to data limitations.

New paper out! Using ~3 million observations across 2,837 species, we studied how shifts in species ranges and flowering phenology jointly impact the timing, species diversity, and network structure of the flowering season across US communities.

It seems to me that the time is ripe for a Bluesky thread about how—and maybe even why—to befriend crows.

Whether phenological reaction norms to historical T° conditions will remain adaptive under future climatic regimes is unclear. Nonetheless, our results suggest that plasticity might have historically enabled rapid phenological acclimation to a wide range of T° conditions

The predominant role of plasticity was consistent among species distributed across climatic space and among ecoregions of the United States. However, the relative contributions of plasticity and adaptation varied markedly among species flowering at different times of the year

We found that, among species, sensitivity patterns were much more frequently consistent with plasticity than local adaptation, but both plasticity and adaptation jointly mediated clinal variation in phenology in many species

We used >1 million flowering specimens collected over 120yr representing 1,605 species to measure flowering sensitivity to T° over space and time, inferring the relative contributions of plasticity and adaptation to observed variation along T° gradients

Phenology varies widely over space and time due to climate, but it is unclear whether this variation (which often affects fitness) is primarily generated by rapid organismal responses (i.e., plasticity) or local adaptation

Excited to see the 2nd chapter of my dissertation out on Nature Ecology & Evolution! My co-authors and I evaluated the contributions of plasticity vs. adaptation as drivers of temperature-related variation in flowering phenology in North America 🌎

Born in 1897, Janaki Ammal was a trailblazing botanist in plant breeding, genetics & cytogenetics.

She overcame gender & caste discrimination & was the first Indian woman to obtain a PhD in botany in the U.S.

Ammal promoted conservation & was a pioneer of indigenous environmental approaches.
