Simulating the potential for ecological restoration of dryland forests in Mexico under different disturbance regimes

▶ We examine the individual and combined impacts of fire and grazing on TDF. ▶ TDF is resilient to at least some anthropogenic disturbance regimes featuring fires. ▶ Fire and grazing have a synergistic effect. ▶ They cause a reduction in forest cover greater than the sum of their individual effects.
