Owing to being disturbed (9)
I believe the answer is:
unsettled
This clue is a double definition.
'owing' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'being disturbed' is the second definition.
('unsettled' can be a synonym of 'disturbed')
'to' is the link.
(Other definitions for unsettled that I've seen before include "Devoid of colonists" , "Nomadic lifestyle" , "Disturbed" , "(Of weather) lacking stability" , "Still to confirm" .)
