Understory plants evade shading in a temperate deciduous forest amid climate variability by shifting phenology in synchrony with canopy trees

Global warming is leading understory and canopy plant communities of temperate deciduous forests to grow leaves earlier in spring and drop them later in autumn. If understory species extend their leafy seasons less than canopy trees, they will intercept less light. We look for mismatched phenologica...
