Circannual rhythms are endogenous biological oscillations that underlie a wide range of seasonal processes. Without knowledge of these underlying mechanisms, it is difficult to fully understand what drives the ways organisms change over the course of a year and to predict how they will respond to environmental conditions. The study of circannual rhythms is particularly timely given the substantial interest in seasonal processes in relationship to environmental change, and further given insights that seasonal change in human physiology and behavior is greater than previously thought. The present chapter outlines basic definitions and ideas on circannual rhythms, summarizes ground-laying work, and highlights some current developments. It then addresses challenges in this field and the opportunities that arise from the rapid development of new technologies.
