Description
Weekly monitoring of alpine plant flowering phenology coupled with snowmelt date recording to assess environmental effects on plant reproductive timing. Focuses on species-specific responses to fine-scale environmental heterogeneity.
Typical Equipment
- field notebooks
- GPS units
- phenology recording sheets
Output Measurements
- first flowering date
- peak flowering date
- peak flowering amount
- flowering duration
- snowmelt date
