The concept of ecological stability occupies a prominent place in both fundamental and
applied ecological research. We review decades of work on the topic and examine how our …

Characterizing how ecosystems are responding to rapid environmental change has become
a major focus of ecological research. The empirical study of ecological stability, which aims …

Most ecosystems are affected by anthropogenic or natural pulse disturbances, which alter
the community composition and functioning for a limited period of time. Whether and how …

Anthropogenic nutrient enrichment is known to alter the composition and functioning of plant
communities. However, how nutrient enrichment influences multiple dimensions of …

Watershed resilience is the ability of a watershed to maintain its characteristic system state
while concurrently resisting, adapting to, and reorganizing after hydrological (for example …

The biotic mechanisms underlying ecosystem functioning and stability have been
extensively—but separately—explored in the literature, making it difficult to understand the …

Accelerating rates of biodiversity loss underscore the need to understand how species
achieve resilience—the ability to resist and recover from a/biotic disturbances. Yet, the …

Understanding the processes that shape forest functioning, structure, and diversity remains
challenging, although data on forest systems are being collected at a rapid pace and across …

Ecological stability is a multidimensional construct. Investigating multiple stability
dimensions is key to understand how ecosystems respond to disturbance. Here, we …
