L00: No Stated Research Question #25

Open mjones01 opened 8 years ago

mjones01 commented 8 years ago

There is no specific research question stated, even in the Research Question section: http://neon-workwithdata.github.io/NEON-R-Spatio-Temporal-Data-and-Management-Intro/R/spatio-temporal-research-questions#research-question---explore-regional-drivers-and-patterns-of-plant-phenology

Current text: Explore (Regional) Drivers and Patterns of Plant Phenology (Our goal is to ...) Better understand (to quantify) both the timing of when plants turn green (green-up) and die back / turn brown (brown-down). To quantify two key drivers of this timing - precipitation and temperature and visualize how / if trends observed in precipitation and temperature relate to trends observed in greening and browning of vegetation. Additionally, we’d like to understand how / if “1” and “2” above vary at different sites.

Possible Question: Are precipitation and/or temperature drivers of the annual patterns of plant phenology?
