Understanding Primary and Secondary Succession in Ecosystems

This text explores the concepts of ecological succession, focusing on primary and secondary succession. Primary succession occurs on bare surfaces that lack soil, such as after a volcanic eruption or glacial retreat. In contrast, secondary succession happens in areas that have been disturbed—such as after a fire or human activity—yet still retain their soil. Both processes are vital for ecosystem recovery and development, paving the way for biodiversity and the establishment of stable environments over time.
