How could climate change or new species affect an ecosystem's stability?

These are two different questions and need two different answers. Climate change could mean warmer temperatures, causing heat stress in the flora or fauna of the ecosytem. It could mean more prolonged droughts, so that some species can not longer survive in the environment. It could alternatively mean more frequent floods, causing destruction of specimens and destabilising the ecosystem. Greater storm activity associated with climate change can also have a deleterious effect on some species, destabilising the ecosystem. Climate change can even favour one species over another and, if they are competitors or prey, create an imbalance that leads to extinction. Introducing just one new usually has a lesser impact on an ecosystem, although any unforseen effect could result in localised disaster and widespread species extinction. Any loss of plant species could potentially lead to serious erosion and loss of topsoil and even, in the extreme, desertification.


How can overpopulation of a species be a problem to an ecosystem?

Over population of a particular species will cause the food chain in that ecosystem to become unstable. Over population will also reduce the amount of producers within an ecosystem (depending if the over population is of a consumer) and will lead to the decrease of other animal species inhabiting the same ecosystem.


Which sequence if natural events is likely to lead to ecosystem stability?

1) Sexual Reproduction - Genetic variation - Biodiversity - Ecosystem Stability

Why is a sea breeze thunderstorm considered a type of air mass thunderstorm?

A sea breeze may lead to a thunderstorm if the cool sea breeze forces warm air to rise which creates a convection cell that creates strong updrafts that lead to a thunderstorm. This is how a sea breeze may lead to the formation of a thunderstorm.


What is a violent thunderstorm that can lead into dangerous tornado?

A supercell is the kind of thunderstorm most likely to produce a tornado.

Why does one change in the ecosystem often lead to other changes in the ecosystem?

The ecosystem is comprised of several organisms and how they relate to their environment. Each organism is connected to another in one way or another and that is why one change is bound to affect all organisms in the ecosystem.


What type of biome does the country Ghana have?

It looks to be like it is Savanna and Rainforest, though Ghana has experienced moderate deforestation that may lead to a change in ecosystem type.
