Resilience in art, the property of artwork to remain relevant over changing times; Resilience (organizational), the ability of a system to withstand changes in its environment and still function
In ecology, resilience is the capacity of an ecosystem to respond to a perturbation or disturbance by resisting damage and subsequently recovering. Such perturbations and disturbances can include stochastic events such as fires, flooding, windstorms, insect population explosions, and human activities such as deforestation, fracking of the ground for oil extraction, pesticide sprayed in soil ...
The California roach are resilient fishes that take advantage of the intermittent waters of central California under conditions most other fishes cannot survive. Roach can tolerate temperatures as high as 30–35 °C and oxygen levels as low as 1-2 ppm. Their resilience allows them to inhabit intermittent streams even as the spring streams dry up.
The totoaba or totuava (Totoaba macdonaldi) is a species of marine fish endemic to the Gulf of California in Mexico.It is the largest member of the drum family Sciaenidae [4] and is the only extant species in the genus Totoaba.
The importance of resilience in biological systems has been widely recognized in terms of the impacts on life by anthropogenic changes. [1] Accelerating environmental change and continuing loss of genetic resources positions lower biodiversity around the planet threatening ecosystem services. A major mitigating factor will be life forms with ...
Fish systematics is the formal description and organisation of fish taxa into systems. It is complex and still evolving. Controversies over "arcane, but important, details of classification are still quietly raging".
The resilience loss is a metric of only positive value. It has the advantage of being easily generalized to different structures, infrastructures, and communities. This definition assumes that the functionality is 100% pre-event and will eventually be recovered to a full functionality of 100%. This may not be true in practice.
The English name is thought to derive from Old Irish ceara/cera meaning "[blood] red", [13] referring to its pink-red underside. [14] [15] This would also connect with its Welsh name torgoch, "red belly". [16] In North America, three subspecies of Salvelinus alpinus have been recognized. [17] "S. a.
