Mathematical phenological models are devices for summarizing what we know of seasonality in biology, or for mimicking the seasonality. There are formulas for discovering and for summarizing recurrence of a phenophase as a function of time only. Also there are models relating the time of the phenophase to the environment, i.e., a correlation between mean temperature and duration of a phenophase. Or the model may have parts and parameters, each with characteristic components of the real thing; we call this a simulator.
