Developing Ecosystem Indicators for Responses to Multiple Stressors [PDF]
Human activities in coastal and marine ecosystems provide a suite of benefits for people, but can also produce a number of stressors that can act additively, synergistically, or antagonistically to change ecosystem structure, function, and dynamics in ...

Plant beneficial microbiome a boon for improving multiple stress tolerance in plants
Beneficial microbes or their products have been key drivers for improving adaptive and growth features in plants under biotic and abiotic stress conditions. However, the majority of these studies so far have been utilized against individual stressors. In

AbstractThis book has mostly considered marine contamination and the biological effects of contaminants acting as single stressors. However, marine environments are rarely exposed to a single stressor, but rather experience a complex mix of many stressors.

Anthropogenic Stressors in Upland Rivers: Aquatic Macrophyte Responses. A Case Study from Bulgaria
Upland rivers across Europe still exhibit undisturbed conditions and represent a treasure that we cannot afford to lose. We hypothesize that the combination of pristine and modified conditions could demonstrate biological responses along the stressor ...

From Arctic Science to Global Policy – Addressing Multiple Stressors Under the Stockholm Convention
Rapid climate change in the Arctic triggers the remobilization of chemical pollution, increasing its exposure and potential impacts in the region. While scientific knowledge on multiple stressors, including the interlinkages between climate change and ...

On the sensitivity of food webs to multiple stressors
Abstract Evaluating the effects of multiple stressors on ecosystems is becoming increasingly vital with global changes. The role of species interactions in propagating the effects of stressors, although widely acknowledged, has yet to be formally explored.
