@saaaakeeeet @vinita_gowda @sukhrajkaur_13 @DhargalkarRahul @iiserbhopal Bottom line: Even in highly seasonal habitats, synchrony is rare! Except for the mass-flowering species that dominate the landscape. This work sets the stage for further long-term phenology & pollination studies in India’s fragile lateritic plateaus ecosystem.

@saaaakeeeet @vinita_gowda @sukhrajkaur_13 @DhargalkarRahul @iiserbhopal 💧Flowering strongly linked to water availability & rainfall patterns (including lag effects). 🐝 Plant–pollinator networks shifted with flowering peaks, highlighting dynamic interactions in this short but intense season.

@saaaakeeeet @vinita_gowda @sukhrajkaur_13 @DhargalkarRahul @iiserbhopal We found that: 🌸Overall, flowering was surprisingly asynchronous—likely due to competition for pollinators. 💐But ~30% of species showed mass flowering, driving the breathtaking “super bloom” landscapes Kaas is famous for.

@saaaakeeeet @vinita_gowda @sukhrajkaur_13 @DhargalkarRahul @iiserbhopal We asked: 🌼Do plants in this seasonal sky-island community flower in synchrony? 🐝Does the plant-pollinator network remain stable across the flowering season? We developed 2 new synchrony indices to capture synchrony in time & abundance, and observed natural pollinator visits.
