fall foliage

Yards are filling up with fallen leaves at this time of year, but some biodiversity researchers are urging homeowners to "leave the leaves" where they are for the winter.

Warmer fall days and nights are making autumn colors more unpredictable and harder to predict.

While northernmost Maine was the only region to hit "moderate" colors as of late last week, that should quickly start to change as nights get cooler.

As new research shows that climate change is causing foliage colors to peak two weeks later than in 1950, Acadia National Park is urging visitors to plan accordingly.

Scientists refer to fall as the most understudied season in climate change research. There are still a lot of unknowns. Yet, understanding the effect of climate change on foliage is critical for regions like Down East Maine, where fall tourism is a billion-dollar industry.
