INTRODUCTION
This website is about freshwater. There are a lot of topics such as energy and biomass pyramids. We hope that this website helps you find what you are looking for.
Primary:
If the succession is halted before it reaches a climax community, secondary succession occurs. Fires, pollution, human interruption, disease, and climate change can all cause secondary succession to occur. Secondary succession may also alter the final climax community. Rooted plants increase the sedimentation, and nutrients that are available. They change the microenvironment, allowing reeds, fen, car, and oak to increase their tolerance of the thickening and dying soil.
Secondary:
In open freshwater, such as a lake or pond, the water is too deep for plants to take root. The most common succession is a Hydrosere. This is a succession that begins in water. It is the process by which a freshwater ecosystem will turn into a woodland.
