Phénologie. [...] Parmi les phénomènes biologiques périodiques, on note pour les céréales et compte tenu de la date de semis, les dates de la levée, du tallage, de la montaison, de l'épiaison, de la floraison et de la maturité et parfois d’autres stades intermédiaires. Pour diverses plantes et les arbres, on note le débourrement, la feuillaison, la floraison, la maturité des fruits et la défeuillaison. Pour les arbres fruitiers, on a défini des stades-repères beaucoup plus nombreux désignés par les lettres de l'alphabet accompagnées ou non d’indices chiffrés. [...] Les observations sur le règne animal comprennent : l'époque d’arrivée, de départ ou de passage des oiseaux migrateurs, celle où les oiseaux sédentaires construisent leurs nids ou font entendre leurs premiers chants, le moment où les animaux(chauves-souris, loirs,...) hibernent, sortent de leur sommeil ou s’endorment. 4, record 3, French, - ph%C3%A9nologie
