• Beyond corals and fish: the effects of climate change on noncoral benthic invertebrates of tropical reefs (2008, background): “…even if ecological redundancy ensures that there is no immediate loss of function to the ecosystem, the adaptive capacity of that ecosystem may decrease, thus increasing the likelihood that future stressors will alter the communities, ecological processes, and habitat (Levin & Lubchenco, 2008).”
• Lessons learned from developing integrated ecosystem assessments to inform marine ecosystem-based management in the USA (2014, background): “However, in the face of emerging uses and increasing demands from existing activities, this reactive, sectoralized approach to ocean management has been called into question (Levin and Lubchenco, 2008).”
• Addressing fisheries bycatch in a changing world (2015, background): “Finally, in conjunction with these dynamic approaches, the further development of practices aimed at managing marine ecosystems for resiliency (Levin and Lubchenco, 2008; Fujita et al., 2013) has the capacity to cultivate transdisciplinary, adaptive frameworks needed for sustainable management of…”
• The ecological role of bivalve shellfish aquaculture in the estuarine environment: A review with application to oyster and clam culture in West Coast (USA) estuaries (2009, background): “…literature suggests that the likelihood of regime shifts to alternate states can increase when anthropogenic disturbance causes reduced “ecological” resilience (Gunderson, 2000; Folke et al., 2004; Scheffer et al., 2005; Groffman et al., 2006; Walker et al., 2006; Levin and Lubchenco, 2008).”
• Levers and leverage points for pathways to sustainability (2020, background): “…to learn and adapt (despite potential inefficiencies); and to cultivate system resilience to maintain critical functions in the face of disturbance and change (e.g. via diversity and redundancy; Folke, Hahn, Olsson, & Norberg, 2005; Levin & Lubchenco, 2008; Tàbara et al., 2010; Walters, 2002).”
• Pesticides, aquatic food webs, and the conservation of Pacific salmon (2010, background): “Also, the narrative standard assumes an understanding of aquatic ecosystem resilience, as defined by functional maintenance in the face of disturbance, recovery from disturbance, or both (Levin and Lubchenco 2008).”
• Social-ecological systems as complex adaptive systems: modeling and policy implications (2012, background): “Resilience or robustness is achieved either when a system is resistant to change or is able to reorganize after change (Holling, 1973; Levin, 1998; Levin and Lubchenco, 2008; Folke et al., 2010).”
