All this may endow the ecosystem with a certain degree of elasticity. This refers to the tendency for the ecosystem to return to its former state. One could easily imagine that ecosystems would be highly unstable if they had no elasticity because even the smallest change in structure could have wide-ranging consequences with wide-ranging species extinctions. This clearly does not occur. The factors that give ecosystems their elasticities are far from clear. There is a debate about whether there is a relationship between ecosystem complexity and stability, which mainly revolves around forest ecosystems, but there is no definite conclusion about whether greater complexity leads to greater stability.
