Extended Data Figure 1: Contrasting ecosystem productivity responses to climate events for low or high levels of resistance (Ω) and resilience (Δ).
From: Biodiversity increases the resistance of ecosystem productivity to climate extremes
In these stylized examples, productivity is decreased by a dry climate event during year one, is increased by a wet climate event during year 11, and is otherwise recovering back towards normal productivity levels either monotonically (black dashed lines and open triangles) or via damped oscillations (solid grey lines and filled circles). Ecosystem stability (μ/σ) depends on both resistance and resilience. See Methods for definitions of resistance and resilience.
