Forest disturbances, competition, and other changes can negatively impact biodiversity by altering ecosystems and potentially causing the decline or loss of certain species. However, biodiversity plays a crucial role in the resilience and recovery of forests from disturbances. A diverse ecosystem is more likely to have species that can adapt to new conditions, contribute to ecosystem stability, and promote overall recovery after disturbances.
