Community resilience
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-002286
The capacity of a biological community to resist disturbance and recover its structure and function after being subjected to stress or perturbation. This involves the ability to absorb changes and reorganize while retaining the same identity. A resilient community can return to its pre-disturbance state or a new stable state.
