phenomenaseasonal
Phenomenaseasonal is an emerging concept used in ecology and climatology to describe phenomena that show regular seasonal patterns while also exhibiting year-to-year variability in timing or intensity. The term combines phenomenology and seasonality and is employed to analyze events that recur with the seasons but are modulated by interannual climate fluctuations and local conditions. It is used across disciplines such as phenology, agriculture, forestry, and biodiversity monitoring.
A typical phenomenaseasonal signal is identified in time series data where a clear seasonal cycle is present,
Methods commonly employed include time-series decomposition, harmonic regression, and wavelet or Fourier analyses, using data from
Critics note that phenomenaseasonal is not yet universally defined, and the term may overlap with existing
