Phenology in winter-deciduous relict mediterranean forests as a tool to understand their adaptation to climatic seasonal cycles

This dataset contains observations and results of the phenological behaviour of deciduous forests in Mediterranean climates and in southern latitudes such as Sierra Nevada National Park (Granada-Spain) during the period of March 2019- February 2020. It provides data and results of annual sequencing of phenophases (phenocalendars), phenophase indexes, and determines the phenological functional groups (FG) of the eighteen selected species of this plant ecosystem. In addition, phenological patterns have been determined taking into account the winter functional reduction of most species, in contrast to the typically Mediterranean species better adapted to the prevailing macroclimate of the area and functionally active during most of their annual cycle. Data from these observations allowed the identification of four functional groups: FG1 -early and prolonged foliation and fruiting; FG2 -very short foliation and fruiting; FG3 -very prolonged foliation and fruiting; and FG4 -prolonged fruitin..., , # Phenology in winter-deciduous relict mediterranean forests as a tool to understand their adaptation to climatic seasonal cycles

## Description of the data and file structure

The dataset presented here contains the numerical information necessary to reproduce the analyses obtained by Pavón-Núñez, Hidalgo-Triana, and Pérez-Latorre to demonstrate the functional and phenological behaviour of a winter deciduous forest sheltered in the Cuenca Alta del río Alhama de Lugros on the northern slopes of Sierra Nevada (Granada, Spain), living in a typical Mediterranean climate and in extremely southern latitudes of the European continent.

Field data were recorded month by month, in the middle days of each month, and during a complete year (March 2019 to February 2020), corresponding to an annual cycle. Eighteen representative species of the forest were selected for data collection, mostly arboreal but also shrubby. All of them wer...,

本数据集收录了2019年3月至2020年2月期间，地中海气候区及南欧纬度区域（如西班牙格拉纳达的内华达山脉国家公园）内落叶林的物候行为观测数据与研究结果。本数据集提供了物候期年序列（物候日历，phenocalendars）、物候期指数的相关数据与分析结果，并确定了该植物生态系统中18个选定物种的物候功能群（phenological functional groups, FG）。此外，研究考虑了多数物种的冬季功能活性下降特性，以此分析其物候模式——这与适应区域主流大气候、全年多数时段维持功能活性的典型地中海物种形成显著差异。基于上述观测数据，研究共识别出4类物候功能群：FG1——展叶与结果期早且持续周期长；FG2——展叶与结果期极短；FG3——展叶与结果期极长；FG4——结果期延长……。

## 数据与文件结构说明

本数据集包含可复现Pavón-Núñez、Hidalgo-Triana与Pérez-Latorre所得分析结果的数值信息，用以展示栖息于西班牙内华达山脉北坡阿尔哈马德卢格罗斯河上游盆地的冬季落叶林的功能特征与物候行为。该林分地处典型地中海气候区，位于欧洲大陆的极南纬度地带。

野外观测数据于每月中旬逐月采集，完整覆盖一个完整年度（2019年3月至2020年2月），即一个完整的物候年周期。本次研究共选取该森林中的18个代表性物种开展数据收集，其中多数为乔木物种，同时包含部分灌木物种。所有物种……
