It is fact that average temperature increase by average of Celsius 0.8 degree worldwide in the last 200 years.
Temperature increasing significantly since industrial revolution in 1880.
In some places such as in Kyoto, Japan, temperature even increasing by Celsius 3.5 degree from 1820 AD to recently.
What effect of temperature rising on Japanese Sakura flowers?
Sakura (cherry) blossom are blooming earlier and earlier decades by decades. It is shown from notes taken by many sources.
From 812 AD to 2021 AD, written documents referred to the following peaked blooming dates of Sakura (please see Fig 02 at below):
- mid April in 812 AD and hundred years afterward.
- shifted to early April around 1800s
- shifted to March 26 in 2021
In addition to temperature, other factors such as rainfall is considered to lead the shift of Sakura blooming.
We may have questions why? And then, how about with other plants, especially agriculture important plants?
As you know that Carbon dioxide (CO2) responsible to temperature increasing, the effect leads to:
- early Spring
- delayed the Fall season
Plants absorbed CO2 more, together with increasing of temperature cause plants to have longer period of growing.
Moreover, we may have “shortage” in agriculture productions. At least there are 5 important crops face supply problems with climate changes.
Here they are (Dan Charles, 2018. Published by NPR, October 25, 2018):
- Almond
- Wheat
- Peaches
- Coffee
- Corn.
Do you feel climate changes have occurred in your places?
Well, we just had some snow again :-// It's supposed to be SPRING!! Magnolia blossoms are beautiful!

Yes, it is messed up here as well, and we no longer know when exactly will what bloom.
ReplyDeleteHere spring and autumn have been significantly reduced.

The erosion here is the biggest indicator of climate change.
ReplyDeleteThe planet is a tapestry that cannot be disconnected from itself. As the magnolia blossoms go, so goes all of agriculture and, indeed, the world.
ReplyDeleteagree with you

The weather here is erratic right now and that is a good indication of climate change.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are beautiful ... I like the wild ones.
ReplyDeleteYes, I think so.
Tanza, There is no doubt that we've entered a period of climate change, partially due to man's activities and partially a natural cycle. The impact will vary across the globe but wild weather swings seem certain. Stay Safe and Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way with this current climate ....

Ce matin de la neige ici.
ReplyDeleteOui je vois des changements climatiques, il y'a moins de neige et les étés sont tellement sec et chaud!
Bonne journée
Each year it seems fall is longer, to me. When we first got here in the midlands we might see snow as early as September. Now it's past Christmas before it might snow..but it might snow way into May, too. Definitely, a climate shift because the Fall time is much warmer, too.
ReplyDeleteWeather is always an interesting topic. Sadly, I feel we are drier than we actually know at time. We might get the rain and the snow, but there is more wind too.
ReplyDeletewe face uncertainty in term of weather recently

Beautiful flowers 😊 have a nice day 😊
ReplyDeleteOlá, Tanza, gostei muito dessa sua postagem, principalmente as alergias dos cães, e é verdade, sim! Tive 3 e de vez em quando lambiam as patinhas.
ReplyDeleteUma boa semana pra você, com saúde e esperança!
Have a wonderful day to you Tanza!

Oh, global warming, wreaking havoc on humans and plants alike. Winters have certainly been more fall-like here in South Jersey. On a lighter note, I never knew that Japanese cherry blossoms are called Sakura blossoms!
ReplyDeleteBellissimi i fiori di magnolia!

I live in a completely different climate zone, but spring and autumn are disappearing more and more here. They are shorter than many years ago.
ReplyDeleteI live in semi-tropical central Florida and the last few summers have been incredibly hotter than before. It's not good.
ReplyDeletebad .....
