General Adaptivity#
Description#
Definition: Adaptivity is the capacity of a system to adjust in response to actual or expected anthropogenic and climatic stimuli and their effects. It refers to changes in inner processes, practices and structures to moderate potential damage or to benefit from opportunities associated with climate change and anthropogenic pressures. In the stability process, adaptivity is not individually based but encompass a broader scale at a species, community or environment scale.
Example: appearance of new behaviours under high fishing pressure
