Application for the participants and the network of phenological RGS BIN RAS observations

An application to help members of the phenological observation network organized and coordinated by the Botanical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences https://www.binran.ru/

Anyone can download the application and become a member of the network of observations!

The phenological network is a community of enthusiasts, researchers and nature lovers who collect and systematize phenological data from all over Russia and neighboring countries.

The application "Phenology" from Ecosystems is a virtual assistant to the participants of this network. By installing the application on your smartphone or tablet, you can no longer fill out paper forms, but enter the data directly into the application and send it directly to the program coordinators.

The application contains questionnaires on observations of

• Hydrometeorological phenomena of nature,

• phenomena in the plant world,

• Agricultural facilities

• phenomena in the life of animals,

For each observation point (route or area of ​​observation) one observation point form is filled out.

Phenology - is the science of seasonal phenomena of nature, the timing of their occurrence and the causes that determine these terms. The appearance of leaves and the end of leaf fall, the flowering of trees and shrubs, the arrival of birds and the appearance of mushrooms, the first snow and the last frost — the entire train of many seasonal phenomena in nature — these are the phenological phases that are being monitored. In fact, we are all phenologists, because, wittingly or unwittingly, we observe these events in nature around the house, school or in the forest throughout the year.

We hope that this application will increase the number of participants in the phenological network of observations and will allow us to more accurately describe and explain the phenomena occurring in Nature!
