报告摘要：From a dynamical point of view, a tipping point presents perhaps the single most significant threat to an ecological system as it can lead to abrupt species extinction on a massive scale. Climate changes leading to the species decay parameter drifts can drive various ecological systems towards a tipping point. Uncovering natural and engineering mechanisms to mitigate or delay a tipping point is of considerable interest. We investigate the tipping-point dynamics in multilayer ecological networks supported by mutualism. And we also unveil a natural mechanism by which the occurrence of tipping points can be delayed by enriching the multiplexity of structural properties of ecological network species. In particular, for a double-layer mutualistic system of pollinators and plants, coupling between the network layers occurs when there is migration of pollinator species. Multiplexity emerges as the migrating species establish their presence in the destination layer and have a simultaneous presence in both layers. We demonstrate that the new mutualistic links induced by the migrating species with the residence species have some fundamental benefits to the well being of the ecosystem in delaying the tipping point and facilitating species recovery. Articulating and implementing control mechanisms to induce multiplexity can thus help sustain certain types of ecosystems that are in danger of extinction as the result of environmental changes.
