Vulnerability/resilience- possible q) for tomorrow?? (1 Viewer)

[youarefree]

Hey guys,

I'm freaking out about tomorrow's exam and have stumbled upon something which I should have studied a long time ago!

If we were asked to "explain the vulnerability and resilience of ecosystems at risk" would we talk about any/all/none of the following:

- Reasons for vulnerability (location, extent, biodiversity, ecosystem diversity)
- Impacts due to natural stress
- Impacts due to human-induced stress

Aaaaaaaaaaaannnd bring in the case studies??

Please help!

Thanks in advance.

We did this question in my mid year exam. What i did and i scored 18/20 was what you have listed above but i integrated it into the four factors for reasons for thee vulnerability of ecosystems ie location, extent, biodiversity, ecosystem diversity. Hope that helps.

Hmm..

So what you did was something like this: (??)

Ecosystem 1
location
extent
biophysical
ecosystem biodiversity

...for 3 different ecosystem case studies?

Hokai...Still confusing..

But thanks...I'll use the integrating tip!
