The Role of Biodiversity in Ecosystem Resilience

The importance of biodiversity is often underscored by researchers who point to the interdependence of species within ecosystems. A recent study...

This study highlights that ecosystems with high biodiversity are better equipped to withstand environmental stresses, such as climate change and habitat destruction. Conversely, ecosystems with lower biodiversity are more fragile and can collapse under similar pressures. The authors argue that preserving biodiversity is not merely for the aesthetic enjoyment of nature but is vital for human survival as well, influencing agricultural resilience, disease regulation, and the stability of ecosystem services.
