“…Degree-days are based on departures of the daily mean temperature from a threshold (Table 1), which are summed on a yearly basis to determine the annual number of degree-days. Freeze-thaw days can have a significant effect on road maintenance (Hershfield, 1979;Ho & Gough, 2006;Schmidlin, Derthier, & Eggleston, 1987) and can play an important role in the production of maple syrup in Ontario and Quebec (Duchesne, Houle, Côté, & Logan, 2009;Pothier, 1995). In this study, the 95th and 5th percentiles of the daily temperature are often referred to as very warm and very cold days, respectively; the daily minimum and maximum temperatures are also referred to as the nighttime and daytime temperatures, respectively.…”

“…The production of maple syrup has decreased over the last 20 years due to unfavourable climatic conditions (Duchesne et al 2009). This decrease is expected to continue and reach from 15% to 22% between 2050 and 2090 in comparison to the levels of 1985 to 2006.…”

“…However, it is possible that the expected loss may be smaller or completely compensated if sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) is able to adapt to an earlier period of production (by two to three weeks between 2050 and 2090, Duchesne et al 2009). Sugar maple seems to have already reacted to the recent climate change since its budbreak is now occurring several days earlier as compared to over the last hundred years (Bernier and Houle 2005).…”

“…C' est pourquoi cet aspect peut représenter aussi bien une vulnérabilité qu'une opportunité pour l'aménagement forestier. Débourrement hâtif de l'érable à sucre La production de sirop d' érable a diminué au cours des 20 dernières années en raison des conditions climatiques dé-favorables (Duchesne et al 2009). Cette diminution devrait se poursuivre pour atteindre de 15% à 22% entre 2050 et 2090 par rapport au niveau de 1985 à 2006.…”

“…Par contre, il est possible que les pertes escomptées puissent être moins grandes, voire totalement compensées, si l' érable à sucre (Acer saccharum Marsh.) parvient à s'adapter en devançant la période de production de coulée de deux à trois semaines en moyenne, entre 2050 et 2090 (Duchesne et al 2009). Il a déjà été observé que les changements climatiques pouvaient provoquer des changements phénologiques, comme le débourrement de l' érable à sucre qui se produit maintenant quelques jours plus tôt par rapport aux 100 dernières années (Bernier et Houle 2005).…”
