RShiny_RMBL-phenology

RMBL-phenology is an interactive shiny app that allows any user to visualize the relationships between climatic variables and phenology of hibernating species, migratory species, and some plant species. It is a modified version of a student activity on climate change and phenology developed by Wu. The original pdf file is here. The data are collected in Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory in Colorado for over 30 years.
