Primes¶
- Overshoot and Collapse
- In ecology, the canonical case is eutrophication: nutrient runoff (nitrogen, phosphorus) is beneficial to a water body at low levels, supporting productivity, but past the assimilation ceiling it drives an algal bloom; the bloom's decay is the self-amplifying load that consumes dissolved oxygen — the secondary resource — and the resulting hypoxic dead zone is hysteretic, persisting even after nutrient loading is cut because internal sediment release and the collapsed food web sustain the low-oxygen regime.
Supported in partVerified against the work's full text
Supports hysteresis from internal sediment phosphorus release and anoxia-driven recycling; does not describe a collapsed food web or an algal-bloom decay dead-zone mechanism.
“Recycling of P from sediments interferes with mitigation of eutrophication, and can sustain eutrophy long after external inputs of P are decreased”

- Regime Change
- Instead of listing dozens of individual changes (price rose, employment fell, investor sentiment shifted), regime change bundles them as symptoms of a unified shift in the governing feedback structure, a perspective Carpenter, Ludwig, and Brock (1999) develop in their analysis of management of eutrophication for lakes subject to alternative stable states.
This sourceFrames lake regime shifts as unified feedback-structure transitions rather than collections of correlated variables; develops control strategies for managing systems with multiple stable states.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not confirmed. The DOI recorded for this work did not resolve when it was last checked, so it is shown above but not linked. The citation may still be sound; the recorded identifier is not. Flagged for repair.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 2 citations: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
