Phenological parameters for D. caeruleum and E. nutans in warmed and control quadrates.

Notes: Means (±SE) of emergence onset time (EOT), duration of emergence (DOE), open flower onset time (FOT) and duration of open flower (DOF) for D. caeruleum and E. nutans in warmed and control quadrates conducted at an alpine meadow on the Tibetan Plateau. Means of phenological parameters are expressed as day of year (days after 1 January). The duration of emergence was calculated as the number of days from the emergence onset time to the emergence offset time; similarly, the duration of open flower is equal to the number of days from the open flower onset time to the open flower offset time. Significant differences between phenological parameters in warmed and control quadrates are denoted by P values.Phenological parameters for D. caeruleum and E. nutans in warmed and control quadrates.
