Another is the role of stability between disturbances, where the pattern unrolls predictably as the system

Toward a new perspective on evaluating climate change resilience of agroecosystems
Abstract Anthropogenic climate change is a major challenge for agriculture globally, so agroecosystems more resilient to changing environmental conditions are necessary to continue sufficient production. However, high uncertainty surrounding the definition and evaluation of ecological resilience in agroecosystems inhibits effective development and ...
