Abstract
⺠We modify a model of the P cycle to include a dynamic vegetation component. ⺠We examine whether deforestation can lead to state changes. ⺠Deforestation led to a significant decline in the recalcitrant organic P pool. ⺠A greater reduction in this pool led to a state change to the bare state. ⺠At-risk systems to state changes are those that have been previously deforested.
