Uniform temperature dependency in the phenology of a keystone herbivore in lakes of the Northern Hemisphere.

Spring phenologies are advancing in many ecosystems associated with climate warming causing unpredictable changes in ecosystem functioning. Here we establish a phenological model for Daphnia, an aquatic keystone herbivore based on decadal data on water temperatures and the timing of Daphnia populati...
