Abstract

The standard stability analysis of an ecosystem model assumes that the model is not disturbed after an initial perturbation. But ecosystems in the real world are subjected to frequent disturbances. The concept of nonvulnerability was developed to describe the ability of a dynamical system to remain healthy under continual disturbances.
