地球上的生命节奏是由环境的季节性变化决定的。植物和动物在生理、健康、形态、行为和人口学方面表现出深刻的年度循环，以响应环境线索。季节性生物影响生态系统和农业，给人类和生物多样性带来后果。人类在健康和幸福方面表现出强劲的年度节律，出生月份可能会产生持续终生的影响。本综述强调，在气候变化、人类生活方式和其他人为影响造成的季节性生物学迅速破坏的背景下，需要更好地了解季节性生物学。气候变化正在改变许多生物体已经适应的年度节奏，可能会对与健康、生态系统和粮食安全有关的行业产生影响。令人不安的是，人类在永恒夏天的人为条件下的生活方式提供了与自然季节脱节的最极端例子，使人类容易受到发病率和死亡率增加的影响。在这篇综述中，我们介绍了季节性干扰的情景，强调了季节性生物学的关键方面，并从生物医学、人类学、兽医学、农业和环境的角度总结了环境因素和内部节律之间季节性去同步的最新证据。由于年度节律在生物系统中普遍存在，它们为跨学科研究提供了一个共同的框架。
The rhythm of life on earth is shaped by seasonal changes in the environment. Plants and animals show profound annual cycles in physiology, health, morphology, behaviour and demography in response to environmental cues. Seasonal biology impacts ecosystems and agriculture, with consequences for humans and biodiversity. Human populations show robust annual rhythms in health and well-being, and the birth month can have lasting effects that persist throughout life. This review emphasizes the need for a better understanding of seasonal biology against the backdrop of its rapidly progressing disruption through climate change, human lifestyles and other anthropogenic impact. Climate change is modifying annual rhythms to which numerous organisms have adapted, with potential consequences for industries relating to health, ecosystems and food security. Disconcertingly, human lifestyles under artificial conditions of eternal summer provide the most extreme example for disconnect from natural seasons, making humans vulnerable to increased morbidity and mortality. In this review, we introduce scenarios of seasonal disruption, highlight key aspects of seasonal biology and summarize from biomedical, anthropological, veterinary, agricultural and environmental perspectives the recent evidence for seasonal desynchronization between environmental factors and internal rhythms. Because annual rhythms are pervasive across biological systems, they provide a common framework for trans-disciplinary research.
