Abstract: Quantum correlations are fragile under noise, motivating quantitative measures that track not only their presence but also their degradation during physical evolution. We develop a robustness framework for the hierarchy of Bell nonlocality, EPR steering, and entanglement, establishing an ordering of the corresponding robustness measures and relating robustness to noise-induced transition times. We further formulate the instantaneous robustness decay along Lindblad dynamics as a directional derivative determined by both the evolution and the robustness functional. Applications to isotropic depolarizing noise and amplitude damping illustrate, respectively, the resulting resource transition times and the directional dependence of steering robustness. The framework provides an approach to characterizing the degradation and lifetime of bipartite quantum correlations under noisy dynamics.
