Submodel
Mechanism
With the use of Heavy Continuous Grazing, Idle, and No Fire, the Tallgrass/Oak Savannah State can shift to the Oak/Juniper/Midgrass State.
Mechanism
With the implementation of various practices such as Brush Management, Crop Cultivation, Range Planting, and Pasture Planting, The Savannah State shifts to the Converted Land State.
Restoration pathway R2A
Mechanism
The Oak/Juniper/Midgrass State could be reverted back to the Tallgrass/Oak Savannah State through the implementation of Prescribed Grazing, Brush Management, Range Planting, and Prescribed Burning.

Mechanism
With heavy continuous grazing, land being idled, and no fires, the Oak/Juniper/Midgrass State can shift to the Oak/Juniper/Mesquite Complex State.
Mechanism
With various conservation practices such as Brush Management, Crop Cultivation, Pasture Planting, Range Planting, Prescribed Grazing, and Prescribed Burning applied, the Oak/Juniper/Midgrass State can shift to the Converted Land State.
Mechanism
Prescribed Grazing, Brush Management, Range Planting, and Prescribed Burning are some conservation practices that are necessary to shift the Oak/Juniper/Mesquite Complex State to the Oak/Juniper/Midgrass State.
