I'm not an anything person these days. You're right in suggesting that climaxes in ecosystems can be permanently deflected. Good examples in the UK are upland peat moorlands which were largely under woodland at one time. Once the tree cover is removed, the resulting rapid soil degradation ensures that the ecosystem can't return to its original state. The balance is permanently altered. |
