Abstract: ContextPredicting ecosystem resilience is a challenge, especially as climate change alters disturbance regimes and conditions for recovery. Recent research has highlighted the importance of spatially-explicit disturbance and resilience processes to long-term ecosystem dynamics. “Neoecological” approaches… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2020.06.048
Abstract: Marine ecosystems face numerous challenges from natural and anthropogenic sources. For example, excessive rainfall from storms rapidly lowers salinity, which can destroy coastal foundation species and their associated fauna [1], while fishing can alter coastal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rsos.180706
Abstract: It is theorized that a mutualistic ecosystem's resilience against perturbations (e.g. species extinction) is determined by a single macroscopic parameter (network resilience), calculable from the network. Given that such perturbations occur owing to environmental changes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cobi.13995
Abstract: Insights into declines in ecosystem resilience and their causes and effects can inform preemptive action to avoid ecosystem collapse and loss of biodiversity, ecosystem services, and human well‐being. Empirical studies of ecosystem collapse are rare… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.16529
Abstract: Episodes of forest mortality have been observed worldwide associated with climate change, impacting species composition and ecosystem services such as water resources and carbon sequestration. Yet our ability to predict forest mortality remains limited, especially… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19031625
Abstract: Increases in particulate matter in cities threaten both public health and ecosystems. Street trees, which are a corridor-type green infrastructure capable of absorbing particulate matter, have been promoted as one possible solution to this problem.… read more here.
