DOI: 10.1016/j.agrformet.2020.108080
Abstract: Abstract Ecosystems are experiencing unprecedented climate change during the past decades, which drove evident shifts in ecosystem states, processes and functions. Understanding ecosystem stability is critical for accurately assessing and predicting ecosystem state shifts when… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2021.107529
Abstract: Abstract Assessing ecosystem states quantitatively or qualitatively is important for ecosystem management. Currently, Traditional Comprehensive Assessment (TCA), including ecosystem health, risk, and service assessment is used most often. Ecosystem stability theory (EST) and ecosystem regime… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tplants.2018.09.007
Abstract: High biodiversity aboveground tends to increase the stability of ecosystem functioning when faced with a changing environment. However, whether and how soil biota affect ecosystem stability is less clear. Here, we introduce a framework for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-15320-1
Abstract: Ecosystem stability is influenced by interspecific interactions, with recent research focusing on how third-party species modify these interactions. However, the impact of "intraspecific higher-order interactions," where the presence of one species affects intraspecific interactions within… read more here.

Plankton as the Cornerstone of Arid Freshwater Ecosystem Stability: From Biodiversity to Stability
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Freshwater Biology"
DOI: 10.1111/fwb.70097
Abstract: Plankton (including phytoplankton and zooplankton) play a crucial role in maintaining aquatic ecosystem stability, yet their influence on the stability of fragile freshwater ecosystems in arid regions remains underexplored. This study systematically investigated the biodiversity… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.16540
Abstract: Soil microbial communities are essential for regulating the dynamics of plant productivity. However, how soil microbes mediate temporal stability of plant productivity at large scales across various soil fertility conditions remains unclear. Here, we combined… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fevo.2018.00224
Abstract: Ecosystems constantly face disturbances which vary in their spatial and temporal features, yet little is known on how these features affect ecosystem recovery and persistence, i.e., ecosystem stability. We address this issue by considering three… read more here.
