Gelbard‚ Ph.D. Department of Environmental Science and Policy‚ University of California‚ Davis THE STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF the world’s grasslands makes them one of the most vulnerable to global climate change of any terrestrial ecosystem (Sala et al.‚ 2000; IPCC‚ 2001a). The low-stature of vegetation confers high light availability‚ leaving many grasslands naturally vulnerable to invasive species (Wagner‚ 1989)‚ especially following disturbance (Hobbs and Huenneke‚ 1992).

Topic 1: Ecosystems at Risk A. Ecosystems and Their Management 2. Vulnerability and Resilience of Ecosystems * Vunerability is the sensitivity of an ecosystem to cope with stress. * Resilience is the ability of an ecosystem (or a component of an ecosystem) to adapt to a changing environment and to restore function and structure following an episode of natural or human-induced stress. * All ecosystems function in a state of dynamic equilibrium or a continual state of balanced change
