Ecological resilience: what to measure and how

Vasilis Dakos et al.

Summary: The measurement of ecological resilience has been a challenging task for ecologists, especially in comparison to engineering resilience. Although attempts have been made to integrate these two concepts, the extent to which they overlap in assessing system resilience is not yet fully understood.

Extending community trajectory analysis: New metrics and representation

A. Sturbois et al.

Summary: The paper introduces a new framework for analyzing community dynamics and expands it by incorporating additional metrics related to initial states. It proposes using innovative maps, charts, and trajectory roses to represent ecological trajectories and enhance their interpretation. The authors urge ecologists skilled in multivariate analysis to integrate this Community Trajectory Analysis into their toolbox to quantitatively evaluate spatio-temporal changes.

Characterizing spatio-temporal changes in benthic communities: Taxonomic and functional trajectories of intertidal assemblages in the bay of Saint-Brieuc (English Channel)

A. Sturbois et al.

Summary: The study found that some species exhibit significant temporal and spatial changes, impacting the composition of benthic assemblages, but this does not necessarily lead to significant changes in functional properties. Considering local changes and variations at the species level explains the differences in composition observed at the scale of assemblages.

Unifying the concepts of stability and resilience in ecology

Koenraad Van Meerbeek et al.

Summary: Characterizing how ecosystems respond to rapid environmental change is a major focus of ecological research. The concept of stability, a key aspect in ecosystem studies, remains a source of confusion and disagreement among ecologists. This study aims to integrate diverging views on ecological stability through a conceptual framework that builds on historical review and the latest developments in the field.

Changes in the analysis of temporal community dynamics data: a 29-year literature review

Hannah L. Buckley et al.

Summary: Most studies use relatively short time series with a median of seven time points, and nearly 70% of studies apply multiple analysis methods with descriptive methods being the most common. The types of analyses used appear to be related to the number of temporal replicates, but not to research aim or other aspects of experimental design.

Decadal trajectories of phytoplankton communities in contrasted estuarine systems in an epicontinental sea

Angeline Lefran et al.

Summary: This study focuses on six contrasting estuarine systems in coastal areas, investigating the stability and trajectories of communities over the past 10 years. It found an overall stability in community composition and greater spatial heterogeneity of phytoplankton assemblages during summer. The co-inertia analysis revealed four separate systems linked to major drivers, explaining the site-specific nature of phytoplankton.
