Regime shifts database : “The Regime Shifts DataBase provides examples of different types of regime shifts that have been documented in social-ecological systems. The database focuses specifically on regime shifts that have large impacts on ecosystem services, and therefore on human well-being.” Do centro de Resiliência Estocolmo, link acima.
