Transcription de la présentation

  1. Ecological Process Based State and Transition Models Pat L. Shaver, Tamzen Stringham and William Krueger

  2. BUILDING STATE AND TRANSITION MODELS

  3. STATES • STATE - a recognizable, resistant and resilient complex of two ecosystem components, the soil base and the vegetation structure • soil - developed through time from specific parent material, climate, landscape position and interaction with biota • - determine the site’s capability • - interaction between soil and vegetation determines functional status of the state’s ecological processes Stringham, et al., 2001

  4. TRANSITIONS • TRANSITION - the trajectory of a change • - change is precipitated by natural events, • management actions, or both • - degrades the integrity of one or more of the state’s primary ecological processes • THRESHOLD- boundary in space and time between two states • - primary ecological processes degrades beyond point of self repair Stringham, et al., 2001

  5. PLANT COMMUNITY PHASES PLANT COMMUNITY PHASES - different assemblages within a state that do not represent a state change since a threshold has not been crossed - vegetation dynamics within a state COMMUNITY PATHWAYS - causes of change between plant communities Stringham, et al., 2001

  16. Disturbance Juniper Encroachment Juniper captures moisture Decrease in understory vegetation Decrease in litter & SOM Increase in bareground Deterioration in soil structure Decreased infiltration rate

  17. Disturbance Decrease in understory vegetation Decrease in litter & SOM Increase in bareground Deterioration in soil structure Decreased infiltration rate Decreased in understory vegetation

  18. BUILDING STATE AND TRANSITION MODELS • States • Transitions • Thresholds • Plant Communities • Community pathways
