Predicting ecological regime shift under climate change: New modelling techniques and potential of molecular-based approaches
Ecological regime shift is the rapid transition from one stable community structure to another, often ecologically inferior, stable community. Such regime shifts are especially common in shallow marine communities, such as the transition of kelp forests to algal turfs that harbour far lower biodiver...
