Haicheng Zhang, Wenping Yuan, Shuguang Liu, and Wenjie Dong. 2015. Divergent responses of leaf phenology to changing temperature among plant species and geographical regions. Ecosphere 6:250. http://dx.doi.org/10.1890/es15-00223.1

Appendix A. A table showing coordinates of the phenological observation sites and the number of observation years, a figure showing interspecific variation in temperature sensitivities of LUD (leaf unfolding date) and LFD (leaf falling date) for plant communities in different regions, and a figure showing seasonal and daily temperature variations for phenological observation sites in different temperate zones.

Table A1. Coordinates of the phenological observation sites and the number of observation years.

Fig. A1. Interspecific variation in temperature sensitivities of LUD (leaf unfolding date) and LFD (leaf falling date) for plant communities in different regions. k75th and k25th are the third and first quartile of species’ temperature sensitivities in a plant community, respectively.

Fig. A2. Seasonal and daily temperature variations for phenological observation sites in different temperate zones. (a) Standard deviation (SD) of the 12 monthly mean temperatures within a year; (b) SD of monthly mean temperatures for spring months (February, March, and April); (c) and (d) Mean values of daily temperature intervals (daily maximum temperature – daily minimum temperature) across the year and spring, respectively.
