It is important to note; resilience is a process rather than a linear occurrence. As shown through the ABC-X and Double ABC-X models, resilience is triggered by stress which in effect causes the process of restructuring to begin. The most important aspect of these models is adaption; how well affected populations overcome the stress process. The adaption of course is affected by other elements including resources and event
