Phenologies of North American Grasslands and Grasses

Inquiry into the phenologies of grasslands and grasses in North America has progressed substantially over the past decade. This chapter highlights five prominent themes from the recent phenological research on grasses and grasslands: (1) phenologies and invasion in grasslands, (2) exploring invasive grass phenologies with experimental manipulations, (3) remote sensing of invasive grass phenologies, (4) phenologies associated with flowering in grasslands, and (5) modeling and grassland phenologies.
