@AileneKane We should be careful to not be too close to other titles (e.g., Laude 'Chilling outweighs photoperiod in preventing precocious spring development') so may want to google titles before we pick top ones.
Top contenders Chilling dominates phenological responses to warming in experiments but not natural systems (90) Chilling dominates spring phenological responses (48) Strong chilling, forcing and daylength cues are prevalent across woody species (78) Chilling drives spring phenology across experiments and complicates forecasting (79) Winter temperatures dominate spring phenological responses (49)
Counts of some phrases in titles of Nature/Science papers (ISI):
winter temperature* -- 6 but ONLY once were words published together (e.g., 'Mechanisms of Age-Dependent Response to Winter Temperature in Perennial Flowering of Arabis alpina')
chilling -- 16 but only TWO apply to plants I think ('GENETICALLY ENGINEERED ALTERATION IN THE CHILLING SENSITIVITY OF PLANTS' or 'PROTOPLASMIC STREAMING IN PLANTS SENSITIVE AND INSENSITIVE TO CHILLING TEMPERATURES')
forcing is published a lot and is mainly about climate forcing ... so another good reason not to use it.
Final contestants: Chilling dominates spring phenological responses (48)- won with a score of 9 Chilling drives spring phenology across experiments and complicates forecasting (79)- our score = 11 Winter temperatures dominate spring phenological responses (49)- our score = 10
Note: we realized that its unclear what the responses are to. to fix this, these would be: Chilling dominates spring phenological responses to warming (50) Chilling drives spring phenology across experiments and complicates forecasting (79) Winter temperatures dominate spring phenological responses to warming (51)
If we use responses' we may need
to warming' or some other explanation of responses to what
@AileneKane Jonathan likes `Winter temperatures dominate spring phenological responses to warming' ... he says 'a lot more.'
@lizzieinvancouver thanks for getting his perspective! We can all mull it over and discuss again prior to submission
@AileneKane Another option ... 'Chilling temperatures dominate spring phenological responses to warming' though doesn't have the cool winter-spring contrast.
ok, @lizzieinvancouver @cchambe12 @dbuona @jsamaha @tsavas @dflynn-volpe A head to head vote: Please send me am email with your top choice of these two titles:
@lizzieinvancouver @cchambe12 @dbuona @jsamaha @tsavas @dflynn-volpe FYI: the winnter is 1. Winter temperatures dominate spring phenological responses to warming
