The paper evaluates stability metrics for ecosystems using time series data, finding they are robust to data quality but sensitive to community size.

This study evaluates early warning signals for ecological regime shifts in lake data and finds few critical transitions, with mixed performance of prediction methods.

The paper examines the relationship between planktonic functional diversity and lake ecosystem state across five lakes, finding that FD synchronizes with state metrics but is not a reliable early indicator.
