States 2 and 5 (additional transitions)

T1A - This transition develops through lack of fire and improper grazing management. The site has crossed the threshold. It is not economically feasible to move this state back towards state 1.
T1B - From community phase 1.3 or 1.5 this transition develops with lack of fire and improper grazing management. The site has crossed the threshold. It is not economically feasible to move this state back towards state 1.
T2.A - This transition is a result of brush management, pest management or prescribed fire prior to range seeding.
T2B - This transition is a result of excessive soil loss and changes in the hydrologic cycle caused by improper grazing management or frequent fire. This state retrogresses to a new site with reduced potential. The site has crossed the threshold and is not economically feasible to move the state back towards state 1.
T3A - This transition develops with fire.
T3B - This transition develops from brush management, fire, or pest management in preparation for a range seeding.
T3C - This transition is a result of improper grazing management and lack of fire. This state retrogresses to a new site with reduced potential due to significant soil loss and changes in hydrology. It has crossed the threshold, and it will not go back to state 1.
P1.1a - This pathway develops in the absence of fire. No juniper seed source is present.
P1.1c - This pathway is a result of fire, either wildfire or prescribed burns.
P1.1d - This pathway develops in the absence of fire. Juniper seed source present.
P1.2a - This pathway is a result of fire.
P1.3a - This pathway is a result of prescribed burning or fire and prescribed grazing.
P1.3b - This pathway is a result of prescribed burning or fire.
P1.4a - This pathway develops with prescribed grazing and lack of fire.
P1.5a - This pathway is a result of prescribed burning or fire and prescribed grazing.
P1.5b - This pathway is a result of fire.
P1.6a - This pathway is a result of prescribed grazing, brush management and lack of fire.
P1.6b - This pathway is a result from prescribed burning or fire.
