How does life rebound from mass extinctions? Scientists find surprising answers
Ecosystems are resilient and can bounce back from disturbances. Recent research published in *Science Advances* highlights how various ecosystems recover and adapt, shedding light on the processes that support their resilience. Funded by the National Science Foundation, NASA, and other institutions, this study provides insights that can aid conservation efforts and guide future environmental policies. Understanding these recovery mechanisms is crucial, especially as climate change and human activities put increasing pressure on natural habitats.
