Improving phenological event identification in trees using manually measured dendrometer data: conventional approaches vs. the novel two-stage threshold approach

Accurate detection of phenological events, such as growth onset, cessation, and seasonal transitions, is essential for understanding tree growth dynamics, particularly in Mediterranean forests where bimodal growth patterns are common. While microcore analysis remains the most precise method, its lab...
