RT Monograph SR 00 A1 Gragnani, A. A1 Rinaldi, S. T1 Acid Rain and the Fate of the Forest Ecosystem YR 1994 FD 1994-08 SP 27 AB In this paper a sixth-order nonlinear dynamical system modelling forest-pests interactions is presented. Forest growth is described by mechanisms of the exchange of carbon and nitrogen between soil and vegetation, and by microbial mineralization. The influence of acid deposition, an increase of which can cause either the decline or the collapse of the forest ecosystem, is discussed. The analysis is carried out by numerically finding the bifurcations of the model. PB WP-94-078 PP IIASA, Laxenburg, Austria AV Published LK https://pure.iiasa.ac.at/id/eprint/4133/
