The Shroomify Research Project

What the records suggest about Trumpet Chanterelle

The project has analysed over a million matched fungal events from Europe and North America alongside weather and habitat data. The patterns may be useful wherever the same fungus occurs, but local climate, trees and soils can change the response.

Weather response

When does this mushroom tend to appear?

The middle line means there was no difference between this species and other fungi recorded in the same area and part of the season. Warmer and cooler always mean warmer or cooler than normal for that place and time of year, not absolute temperature.

Each point is a separate matched comparison for that weather measure and time window. Clear results must have a meaningful effect, adequate geographic coverage and the same direction in odd and even years. These are associations in field records, not rules or forecasts.
