Abstract
Phenology is the study of seasonal cycles in plants, focusing on leafing (vegetative) or reproductive cycles, in particular. These studies, however, logically follow into longer-term cycles, which change both the magnitude of phenological events and their timing from year to year. In all cases, the effects on the reproductive cycles have a profound influence on the adaptability, survival and distribution of species.
