SECONDARY ECOLOGICAL SUCCESSION Ecological Succession is the progressive series of changes that leads to an establishment of a relatively
stable climax community. Secondary succession begins in areas where natural biotic communities have been completely or partially destroyed such as in abandoned farm
lands,
burned or
cut forests,
lands that have been flooded.
Since some soil or sediment is present, secondary succession is
faster than primary succession. Succession would occur faster in area existing in the middle of the large continent. This is because, here all propagules or seeds of plants belonging to the different series would reach much faster, establish and ultimately result in
climax community.
