Relationship between Species Diversity and Community Stability in Degraded Alpine Meadows during Bare Patch Succession [PDF]

Plants, 2023
Plant diversity plays an important role in maintaining the stability of ecosystem functioning. Based on field surveys and indoor analyses, this study investigated the relationship between species diversity and community stability at different stages of ...

Enclosure enhances grassland plant diversity and community stability more effectively than grazing and mowing by strengthening species turnover regulation and soil process driving [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Grassland ecosystems are profoundly influenced by land management practices, yet the long-term mechanisms linking plant diversity and community stability remain unclear.

Resource diversity disturbs marine Vibrio diversity and community stability, but loss of Vibrio diversity enhances community stability [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Vibrio is a salt‐tolerant heterotrophic bacterium that occupies an important ecological niche in marine environments. However, little is known about the contribution of resource diversity to the marine Vibrio diversity and community stability.

Reseeding Native Species Promotes Community Stability by Improving Species Diversity, Niche, and Interspecific Relationships in the Desert Steppe of Northwest China [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
The mechanism of community stability is a hot topic in the field of ecology. Research on the stability of the grassland community has gradually increased, and the reseeding of native species is one of the main measures to restore the degraded desert ...

Relationship Between Species Diversity and Community Stability of Vegetation Patches in Thymus mongolicus Steppe, China [PDF]

Plants
Grassland ecosystems play a crucial role in sustaining the stability of global ecosystem functions. However, the plant communities of grasslands exhibit spatially heterogeneous stability patterns such as vegetation patches influenced by human ...

Effects of Escherichia pollution and salinity on nutrient levels in submerged vegetated wetlands: Insights into benthic community stability and metabolisms

Water Science and Technology, 2023
Inner coastal wetland ecosystems are generally eutrophic and are often exposed to both salinity stress and Escherichia coli pollution. However, the effects of these stressors on nutrient-cycling and microbial communities are under-researched.

Independent Effects of Species Removal and Asynchrony on Invariability of an Intertidal Rocky Shore Community

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Ecological stability depends on interactions between different levels of biological organization. The insurance effects occur when increasing species diversity leads to more temporally invariable (i.e., more stable) community-level properties, due in ...

Subpopulations and stability in microbial communities [PDF]

Physical Review Research, 2020
In microbial communities, each species often has multiple, distinct phenotypes, but studies of ecological stability have largely ignored this subpopulation structure. Here, we show that such implicit averaging over phenotypes leads to incorrect linear stability results. We then analyze the effect of phenotypic switching in detail in an asymptotic limit

Community stability is related to animal diversity change

Ecosphere, 2022
Understanding the drivers of community stability in times of increasing anthropogenic pressure is an urgent issue. Biodiversity is known to promote community stability, but studies of the biodiversity–stability relationship rarely consider the full ...

Evolutionary Stability in Games of Communication [PDF]

Games and Economic Behavior, 1993
This paper identifies evolutionarily stable outcomes in games in which one player has private information and the other takes a payoff-relevant action. The informed player can communicate at little cost. Outcomes satisfying a set-valued evolutionary stability condition must exist and be efficient in common interest games.
