Climate change has desynchronised insect and vegetation phenologies across Europe

This study evaluates how climate change has affected the phenological synchrony between vegetation and insects across Europe. Leveraging 34 years of remote‑sensing observations and citizen‑science records, we analysed observations of 1,495 phytophagous insect species (spanning four orders) together with the vegetation start‑of‑season (SOS) at the same spatio‑temporal points. Our goal was to quantify long-term trends in vegetation and insect phenology and analyse potential drivers.本研究评估了气候变化如何影响欧洲范围内植被与昆虫之间的物候同步性（phenological synchrony）。本研究依托34年的遥感（remote sensing）观测数据与公民科学（citizen science）记录，对1495种植食性昆虫（phytophagous insect）物种（涵盖4个目）以及对应时空点位的植被生长季始期（SOS）开展了分析。本研究旨在量化植被与昆虫物候的长期变化趋势，并解析其潜在驱动因子。
