The 2024 #BulletinAMS State of the Climate Assessment is out today. @usa-npn.bsky.social contributed data & info about how #phenology is changing in the U.S. The timing of plant and animal activity such as leaf-out is a strong indicator of species and ecosystem response to changing conditions.

Hooray @lpzoo.org! Congrats on 5 years of #phenology observations on native hibiscus! www.lpzoo.org/phenology-an...

Thank you so much, Michelle Sutton, for the wonderful review of my book, _#Phenology_, in City Trees Magazine! read.dmtmag.com/i/1537178-ju...?

Now, as always, getting outside is good for you and your mood. Thankful for the opportunity to write for Arizona Daily Sun. #phenology azdailysun.com/opinion/colu...

@jeremyclark.bsky.social helped the @usa-npn.bsky.social explore options for generating commercial revenue. It's tough for programs exist to serve the public. I hope our experience can help other programs suddenly struggling with $ loss. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

It's not uncommon for spring to start out early and then slow down, or vice-versa... see where either of those sequences of events occurred in the L48 states this past spring: www.climate.gov/news-feature... #phenology @usa-npn.bsky.social @climate.noaa.gov

Spring didn't really start out very interesting (arriving later than average in much of the south & west), but is showing up early in the middle of the country and creeping into the NE early now! #phenology #statusofspring @usa-npn.bsky.social www.usanpn.org/data/maps/sp...

Thank you so much, @m-kebell.bsky.social! Are you seeing any signs of spring yet? It's been sooooo dry here, but still there are some encouraging things to note - I'm having to look at bit more closely to see!

In anticipation of the first day of spring, The New York Times interviewed @theresacrimmins.bsky.social on the subject of her new book, "Phenology," and how gardeners can piece together a more textured sense of spring's start from real-time clues found in their backyard:

Excited for this event next week! Not too late to register! And it will be recorded, in case this time isn't great for you :) #phenology

According to predictions from NOAA's Climate Prediction Center, Phil may be right for parts of the Northwest and Northern Great Plains - more cool temperatures are on the way! The rest of the county should see near normal temperatures or above-average temperatures over the next month or so.

Each year, people gather to hear Punxsutawney Phil's prediction of what the next six weeks of weather will bring. This year, Phil saw his shadow this morning and predicted six more weeks of winter! But what does the science say? Keep track of Spring's arrival: usanpn.org/data/maps/sp...

Here we go with tracking the start of spring! So far, spring leaf out is up to 10d late in southern FL and TX compared to long-term avg (1991-2020). Spring arrival is variable in CA & AZ, arriving 5d late to 2 wks early. Track spring: www.usanpn.org/data/maps/sp... @usa-npn.bsky.social #phenology
