What effect has recent weather had on wildlife? Does climate change affect timings in nature? Nature’s Calendar is a citizen science project that helps scientists discover answers to these questions. The project records events from leaf buds bursting to blackberries ripening. The contributions that are made add to a long biological record that dates back as far as 1736.
