ecosystem-resilience
Ecosystem resilience refers to the capacity of a plant community and its associated environment to absorb disturbances—such as storms, flooding, or invasive pressures—while maintaining core structure and function. In plant science, studying this resilience helps researchers understand how foundation species stabilize soils, buffer coastlines, and support biodiversity even under stress. This knowledge is critical for predicting how vegetated ecosystems will respond to climate change and for guiding conservation and restoration efforts.
