Soil Seed Banks, Alternative Stable State Theory, and Ecosystem Resilience

Miaojun Ma et al.

Summary: The composition of both aboveground and belowground plant communities plays a crucial role in ecosystem restoration and stability, with a current focus mainly on aboveground vegetation. Integrating seed bank dynamics into alternative stable state theory can reveal the importance of the relationship between the two, enhancing system resilience and reducing the likelihood of transitioning to undesirable states.
