current fire impacts amplified by "the growing fire deficit that has removed the self-regulating behaviors and stabilizing feedbacks of historical fire regimes" A fire deficit persists across diverse North American forests despite recent increases in area burned Parks+ doi.org/10.1038/s414...

Fig. 4: Conceptual figure illustrates the impacts of fire exclusion and suppression on area burned and fire severity in historically frequent-fire North American forests and woodlands represented by the majority of the fire scar sites used in our analysis.

Resilience & Environmental Assessment Setting the Limit for Cumulative Effects: a Regional Safe Operating Space for Maintaining Ecological Resilience Greaves+ doi.org/10.1007/s002... & Re-grounding cumulative effects assessments in ecological resilience Greaves+ doi.org/10.1016/j.ei...

Hypothetical examples that illustrate how a regional SOS for resilience can be applied to a landscape to understand if cumulative effects are exceeding thresholds beyond which there may be significant changes to ecosystem structure, function, and process (i.e., ecological resilience). The regional SOS for resilience is shown with light shading outlined by an upper and lower boundary (hashed lines). The current position of the system within the regional SOS for resilience is represented by a dark red (outside regional SOS For resilience) or green (within the regional SOS for resilience) band. The width of the band captures the uncertainty or fluctuations in the precise state of the system. When an attribute has been pushed outside of the regional SOS for resilience, it is outlined in red. Top panel – a landscape where a century of anthropogenic wildfire suppression has resulted in highly connected landscapes that lack modularity and feedbacks (e.g., wildfire disturbance regimes). Although diversity and memory remain within their regional SOS for resilience, they are approaching the lower boundary. Middle panel – a landscape that has been fragmented by seismic exploration to support the oil and gas industry, thereby resulting in high modularity and decreased connectivity. Lower panel – a landscape with extensive timber harvest, which has pushed most attributes of a resilient ecosystem outside of their regional SOS. A patchwork of fragmented stands in various states of recovery has resulted in high patch diversity (e.g., age class), high modularity, and low connectivity. Additionally, silviculture practices have led to a decline in ecological memory and disrupted natural feedbacks (e.g., disturbance-recovery feedback).

Important new paper on ecological function, broad-scale disturbances, and likely loss of ecological #resilience. Still thinking about what this means for resilience theory.

Reflexivity as a transformative capacity for sustainability science. ✨ Excited to share a recently published paper with a stellar group of transdisciplinary co-authors. Really proud of this one, as I was able to share an important personal learning during my PhD www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

The evolution of social-ecological systems (SES) research: a co-authorship and co-citation network analysis Manyani et al doi.org/10.5751/ES-1...

Fig. 3. (a) Use of the terms “social-ecological systems,” “social ecological systems,” “socio-ecological systems,” and “socio ecological systems” over the years 1981–2019. The insert shows the period between 1981–2003. Source: Based on data extracted in the WoS database. (b) A cumulative stack graph showing the development of SES research across continents, covering the years 1981–2019. The number of publications for each region corresponds to the proportion it covers in the graph (by color).

An interesting new take on the debate around top-down vs bottom-up formation of institutions.

Many people from the Resilience Alliance were involved in producing these new assessments. Congratulations on all your hard work. The summaries for policy makers from these assessments are out now: ipbes.canto.de/v/IPBES11Med...

Note: A scientifically solid & practically useful literature on "tipping points" in local nature-society systems has been available since at least the early 1960s: Ricker (1963) "Big Effects from Small Causes" in fisheries management, Holling (1973) "Resilience & stability of ecological systems."

Fig. 2. Mean scores for indicators based on perceived resilience pre- and post-wildfire. Values are as follows: Very Poor (1), Somewhat Poor (2), Neutral (3), Somewhat Good (4), and Very Good (5).

Relational research to elevate cultural dimensions of marine organisms in Hawaiʻi Leong et al doi.org/10.5751/ES-1...

Fig. 1. Comparison of number of codes reflecting common and less common cultural dimension codes identified in Ka ʻOihana Lawaiʻa for (a) taxa emphasized in Hawaiian texts, (b) taxa emphasized in both Hawaiian texts and NOAA management documents, and (c) taxa emphasized in NOAA management documents. Asterisk indicates a significant difference (chi-squared test, p < 0.05).
