Phenology - the layman's science
Abstract
Phenology is embedded in human folklore and culture but it is also a science--a science of the relationships between biological events and environmental changes, chiefly those of season and weather. As a science phenology is closely related to ecology, physiology, meteorology and genetics. Agriculture, forestry and game management are among the applied sciences that depend heavily on phenological knowledge.
