Abstract: In order to explore impacts of climate change on woody plant phenology in Benxi Mountainouse area, the phenophases change of woody plant and its responses to climate change were analyzed. The study used methods of linear trend and trend coefficient, and based on the data of Salix phenology of national agrometeorological station and temperature, precipitation, sunshine from 1980 to 2012 in Benxi County. The results showed that the temperature had a significant warming trend in the past 33 years, its increasing rate was 0.45℃/10 a, the precipitation and sunshine had a declining volatility trends and the precipitation showed great volatility, the range between the maximum and the minimum rainfall was big. The trend of buds opening was significantly delayed, its linear rate was 2.4 d/10 a. Flowering period was also delayed, its linear rate was 0.35 d/10 a. The start of discolor and fallen leaves showed significantly delayed trends, the rates were 7.27 d/10 a and 5.52 d/10 a respectively. Influence of Salix phenology of the temperature was significant, and the phenology changes of precipitation and sunshine had certain impact.
