Community ecology

divergent community compositions caused by assembly history that persist for a long time but eventually converge, as distinct from truly alternative stable states.

In community ecology, alternative transient states refers to divergent community compositions caused by assembly history that persist for a long time but eventually converge, as distinct from truly alternative stable states. This meaning comes from Fukami (2011) in Ecology Letters.[1]
