Phenology, corresponding to the study of periodic events, plays an important role in fitness and species distribution because it determines when a species grows and reproduces. Here, F. Jean et al. compiled a dataset of leaf phenology observations for European Beech and Silver fir. The data has been recorded at the tree level, from bud development to leaf unfolding date, along the Mont-Ventoux, a mountain in the South of France.
