An exploratory framework is presented as a step towards the operationalization of resilience for empirical studies, which equate resilience with the ability of a system to maintain its identity, where system identity is defined as a property of key components and relationships and their continuity through space and time.

Recent theory and empirical data are integrated to identify ways to define and understand potential thresholds in the resilience of nature, and thus the potential for regime shifts, by focusing on the roles of strong and weak interactions, linkages in meta-communities, and positive feedbacks between these and environmental drivers.
