Chapter 3: Ecosystem Ecology - Lesson 5: Response to Disturbance

Author: Miranda Schaelling

Chapter 3 Lesson 3 Sticky Note Video

The last lesson for Chapter 3! Wooot!

DISTURBANCE

Some disturbance can be beneficial, but too much causes ecosystem unsustainability.
An avalanche of mud crashes down a hillside, already dotted with the scars of previous slips. Rocks and muddy debris sluice through the village, pushing aside coconut palms and other plants, before plunging into the ocean. How could a disturbance like this be beneficial?

Ecosystem Services

How is biodiversity essential to humans? We couldn't survive without it! Biodiversity supplies food, shelter, medicine and so much more to humans.
