A framework for the resilience of seagrass ecosystems [PDF]
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2015 Seagrass ecosystems represent a global marine resource that is declining across its range. To halt degradation and promote recovery over large scales, management requires a radical change in emphasis and application that seeks to enhance seagrass ecosystem resilience.

Spatial Interactions and Resilience in Arid Ecosystems [PDF]
The American Naturalist, 2004 We present a mathematical analysis of the consequences of spatial interactions between vegetation patches by means of water flow for the functioning of arid systems. Our model results suggest that spatial exchange of water improved the resilience to disturbances and increased the resistance to human-induced loss of cover.

Grazing Away the Resilience of Patterned Ecosystems [PDF]
The American Naturalist, 2019 Ecosystems' responses to changing environmental conditions can be modulated by spatial self-organization. A prominent example of this can be found in drylands, where formation of vegetation patterns attenuates the magnitude of degradation events in response to decreasing rainfall. In model studies, the pattern wavelength responds to changing conditions,

Can we be both resilient and well, and what choices do people have? Incorporating agency into the resilience debate from a fisheries perspective. [PDF]
, 2012 In the midst of a global fisheries crisis, there has been great interest in the fostering of adaptation and resilience in fisheries, as a means to reduce vulnerability and improve the capacity of fishing society to adapt to change.

Resilience of the Internet Interconnection Ecosystem [PDF]
, 2012 In 2010 the European Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA) launched a study to investigate the resilience of the Internet’s interconnection system and come up with policy recommendations. A large number of stakeholders were contacted, and their expertise has been reflected in the study.

How SMEs Performance Drives the Exportation Ecosystem Resilience
, 2023 : Exportation ecosystems are highly complex and can collapse when subjected to local and global disruptions. Similarly, unsuitable topology structures (network structures) and performance of SME sector can affect the growth of economic resilience.
