Smith, a plant physiologist with the USDA Forest Service Northern Research Station, this premature budding of leaves can pose risks to the health of trees. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">“Early opening of buds exposes the new tender tissue to a late-season killing frost that could destroy or distort the new growth,” explains Smith. “Also, creatures that depend on that new tissue for their own nutrition will not find this food when they normally expect it. Early flowering can put the plant out of sync with pollinators.”</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Beyond these more apparent effects, there can also be adverse physiological outcomes. During a normal growing season, trees utilize evapotranspiration, which is the normal evaporation of water from leaves and surfaces of the tree that draws sap up from the roots to branches and leaves. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Evapotranspiration also serves to help regulate leaf temperature which is important for photosynthesis. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">However, if the ground remains frozen while the air has warmed, water is unable to enter the roots to replace moisture lost to evaporation through the leaves. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">“So that lack of new water into the tree increases the tension (negative pressure) within the sap. Under extreme conditions, the tension may break the flow of sap and cause winter dieback of branches,” says Smith.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Maple syrup production, a hallmark of late winter and early spring, can also be impacted with the early arrival of warm weather.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2;

vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> “In early warming conditions, the first big flush of sap at a newly tapped tree might be all that the tree yields,” explains Smith. “Sap yield, in terms of both volume and sweetness, is favored by cold nights, deep snow to insulate roots where the sugar resides as starch, and sunny, slightly mild days.” </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2;
