Primes

• Adaptive Capacity

  • This sourceDistinguishes engineering resilience (speed of return to a single equilibrium) from ecological resilience (magnitude of disturbance absorbed before regime shift); foundational for the typology of resilience meanings.

• Resilience
  • Three dominant frameworks have emerged in contemporary usage: engineering resilience (fast return to prior equilibrium), ecological resilience (persistence within a regime despite perturbation), and adaptive resilience (capacity to reorganize and maintain essential function while transforming structure), a typology articulated by Holling (1996) and extended by Folke (2006)

    This sourceDistinguishes engineering resilience (speed of return to a single equilibrium) from ecological resilience (magnitude of disturbance absorbed before regime shift); foundational for the typology of resilience meanings.

• Stability
  • Holling's distinction between engineering resilience (return rate) and ecological resilience (basin size) moved from forest ecology into climate adaptation and critical-infrastructure protection.

    This sourceSharpens the return-rate versus basin-size distinction migrating into climate adaptation and infrastructure protection.
