Primes¶
- Exposure Creep
- In ecology, a refugium habitat accumulates species and biomass during quiet periods until a single bad year wipes out a far larger stake than it once held.
This sourceShows refugia that concentrate biota during quiet periods become ecological traps when a single extreme drought arrives, causing outsized loss of the accumulated stock.

The study shows stream-pool refuges that supported juvenile salmon in normal years becoming traps in extreme drought, but not accumulation of species or biomass over quiet periods.
“more extreme droughts may turn previously suitable habitats into ecological traps, where vulnerable species can no longer persist.”
- In ecology, a refugium habitat accumulates species and biomass during quiet periods until a single bad year wipes out a far larger stake than it once held.
Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 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.
