Community assembly: alternative stable states or alternative transient states?
The concept of alternative stable states has long been a dominant framework for studying the influence of historical contingency in community assembly. This concept focuses on stable states, yet many real communities are kept in a transient state by disturbance, and the utility of predictions for stable states in explaining transient states remains unclear. Using a simple model of plant communi...
متن کاملAlternative stable states and regional community structure.
Many models of local species interactions predict the occurrence of priority effects due to alternative stable equilibria (ASE). However, few empirical examples of ASE have been shown. One possible explanation for the disparity is that local ASE are difficult to maintain regionally in patch dynamic models. Here we examine two possible mechanisms for regional coexistence of species engaged in lo...
متن کاملResilience and Alternative Stable States of Tropical Forest Landscapes under Shifting Cultivation Regimes
Shifting cultivation is a traditional agricultural practice in most tropical regions of the world and has the potential to provide for human livelihoods while hosting substantial biodiversity. Little is known about the resilience of shifting cultivation to increasing agricultural demands on the landscape or to unexpected disturbances. To investigate these issues, we develop a simple social-ecol...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Autochthonous Deposition and Resuspension of Sediments in the Takahamairi Bay of Lake Kasumigaura
Deposition rates were measured by means of sediment traps at five stations in hypertrophic Takahamairi Bay of Lake Kasumigaura for the selected periods of 1981-1986. Separation of deposited fluxes into autochthonous and sediment resuspension components was attempted on the basis of chlorophyll a concentration for the tracer. Even at the central station of the bay, the average daily flux of auto...
