The context

Albert Norström Stockholm Resilience Centre Introduction to resilience thinking

We are in the anthropocene

Rapid change in major processes and resources

Human use of goods and services is increasing

Most ecosystem services are decreasing

We seem to be approaching thresholds

Governance systems that makes it possible for society to relate with environmental assets in

a fashion that secures their capacity to support societal development for a long time

in the future.

Ability to maintain functioning despite stress, shocks or disturbance

Reflects ability of system to self-organize; build capacity for learning and adaptation

Engineering vs ecosystem resilience

Natural systems were treated as predictable systems with single equilibria

Ecosystems as linear systems

Disturbance

Recovery

Engineering resilience

Ecosystems with multiple equilibria

Alternative regimes

Linear system

Predictable

Example:Management of fisheries based on MSY

When stocks are overfished, just stop fishing!
