Abstract Understanding spatial–temporal patterns of terrestrial vegetation response to climate change (long‐term greening/browning) is important for developing strategies mitigate degradation. Semiarid rangelands are especially susceptible degradation, which challenges wildlife conservation and human livelihoods that depend on livestock production. In the cold‐arid Trans‐Himalayan ecosystem (northern India), temperature increasing, it also becoming progressively wetter. Yet,...
Abstract Quantification of rates and patterns community dynamics is central for understanding the organization function ecosystems. These insights may support a greater empirical ecological resilience, application resilience concepts toward ecosystem management. Distinct types in natural communities can be used to interpret apply concepts, but quantitative methods that systematically distinguish among them are needed. We develop method analyze long‐term records plant using principles...
Understanding temperature-sensitive trophic level interactions has garnered interest in the context of current global warming trends. We examine tri-trophic (resource-consumer-predator) and investigate bi-stable dynamics; with one favourable regime sustaining oscillations all levels, while other unfavourable involves predator population collapse. Incorporating effects through explicit time dependence model parameters, we demonstrate that attractor transitions a sequence dynamics, including...
