To answer the first question beforehand - PEP725 is the succes- sor of the COST Action 725 and that is the reason for the name. So far 17 European meteorological services and 5 partners from different phenological network operators have joined the project. PEP725 is operated by the Austrian Weather Service ZAMG. About Phenology Phenology is the study of the timing of recurring biological events in the animal and plant world. Leaf unfolding and flower- ing of plants in spring, fruit ripening, colour changing and leaf fall in autumn, as well as the appearance and departure of migrat- ing birds and the timing of animal breeding are all examples. During the past decade phenology has rapidly become an im- portant tool for climate change impact studies. What happened in the world since our first record in 1868 About the data set As you can see on the right the 19 000 observation places are very uneven distributed over Europe. Most of them are in the UK and Germany. A huge number of reports came from the agriculture sector (e.g. Barley - Hordeum vulgare 8% of all observa- tions, Potato - Solanum tuberosum 6% and Wheat - Triticum aestivum 5%) but there are also other plants common (Horse Chestnut - Aesculus hippocasta- num with 7% or Oak - Quercus robur). Most records were reported during spring and autumn. About our users Until now about 50 users have downloaded 3000 data sets, a data set contains all records of one country for a certain plant. Most of interest are Birch (Betula), Sweet Cherry (Prunus avium) and Oak (Quercus robur) About the future Our main goal is to continue the data collection for an up to date service for the community. We also have to ad- dress the topics data quality and meta- data (what, where and how). E.g. we have a simple map online for a visible check of the coordi- nates of each station. Another point would be the im- provement of the interface to a modern, standard- ised service.
