Phenological responses to canopy structure depend on vegetation biomes across the United States

Puntos clave

• The aim is to investigate how forest gaps impact seasonal changes in plant life across various vegetation biomes in the U.S.
• Utilized code scripts for variable extraction
• Applied a nearest neighbor gaussian process model
• Examined data from National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) sites
• Identified significant effects of canopy structure on phenology
• Noted variances in responses across different vegetation biomes
• Provided insights on seasonal transitions in diverse forest types
