Abstract The present review gives an overview about the status of research on seasonal variation natural products in herbs growing or grown Europe. Due to pronounced differences weather patterns, papers covering plants from Mediterranean, temperate, and cold climate zones are reviewed separately. Apart trying give existing newer literature after year 2000, we try identify some repeatedly found ...

[1] Differences in simulations of climate feedbacks are sources of significant divergence in climate models’ temperature response to anthropogenic forcing. Snow albedo feedback is particularly critical for climate change prediction in heavily-populated northern hemisphere land masses. Here we show its strength in current models exhibits a factor-of-three spread. These large intermodel variation...
