Linking viticultural climatic indices to grape phenology in the South Tyrolean Alps

Climate indices based on heat accumulation, e.g. the Winkler index, are widely used to define the climatic niches for vines. In this study, we investigate how a combined use of high-resolution (25 m) climate index maps and phenology records from 30 vineyards in South Tyrol (in the Italian Alps) can...
