We present a unique dataset of historical tropical tree phenology observations at two sites from different bioclimatic regions across the Congo Basin. These data may provide a reference baseline and key information on how tree species are responding to a changing climate.
Including solar radiation increases tropical leaf phenology model accuracy
African tropical leaf phenology is dominated by large and/or abundant trees
A drop in replacement for the PhenoCam StarDot cameras
Existing models poorly predict the timing of spring green-up in grasslands. New model shows grassland green-up is driven by both precipitation and temperature.
