Phenology and nature's shifting rhythms - Regina Brinker

With rapidly rising global temperatures come seasonal changes. As spring comes earlier for some plant species, there are ripple effects throughout the food web. Regina Brinker explains how phenology, or the natural cycles of plants and animals, can be affected by these changes.

My high school marching band is going to D.C. during the Cherry Blossom Festival! I love the cherry blossoms, being there once during the festival before, and I would hate to miss them.

So technically I could write "phenologist with over a decade of experience" into any employment letter and it would be true.

I wish we had normal weather here in missouri that matched with the phenology.

In order for anything to react to anything there has to be some type of quantifiable consciousness. Even nothing would be conscious of nothing because nothing would be the quantifiable other that nothing would compare itself, to define itself as something, thats just point fracture of subconsciousness to consciousness. Thats why the word anti gets used a lot, to try to describe the word anti because it has to think from the opposite side of itself while describing it.

There are 3 seasons in Florida: wet, dry, and hurricane.

Great animation, and very interesting :)

The idea is to show that time goes faster rather than going backwards :)

The weather is becoming more and more extreme. Hotter in summer and cooler in winter.

Can you explain it to me? I was still wondering at the end.

Even if you are very careful to never drop anything on the ground of your room, it's still gonna get filthy from dust over time. You must adapt to the filth in your room instead of attempting to control it.

is there any thing like TEDEd for adults?

[harryhemmingway]

I was beginning to worry when I realized something was missing in this TED-clip. Then I got to 01:18 and I was relieved to see that it really was a TED presentation. Water melons of the world, unite.

Well, I live in South Florida...It looks and feels like Summer all year 'round...my phenological experience is lacking. :)

Maybe repost with the clock going backward???

I thought this was going to be about phrenology, the quack pseudoscience!
