State-and-transition models (STMs) have been successfully used to describe ecological dynamics in woodlands, shrublands, grasslands, and several other ecosystems. Changes in vegetation and soil are measured to gauge and predict plant community dynamics within ecological states and transitions between alternative ecological states. Ecological states and their boundaries are defined by a range of variability in vegetation and soil parameters. The ecological site classification system used in the United States requires the development of a unique STM model for each defined ecological site. The foundation of the ecological site concept is the estimation and quantification of a historical reference plant community. Historical information, land m...
