Understanding multiple stresses almost always requires consideration of multiple variables, nonlinear processes, and a variety of spatial and temporal scales. We typically have only a rudimentary understanding of the dynamics of interactions between different environmental variables in complex systems, making it extremely difficult to predict the combined effects of multiple interacting stresses.
