Question

What process occurs after a forest fire wipes out an entire ecosystem? What is this process called? What are the steps of this process after a natural disaster, such as a forest fire, occurs?

Answer 1

The secondary succession is triggered by a natural event (forest fires for example) that destroys an established ecosystem. The destroyed forest will then undergo a regrowth process. This secondary growth may look bizarrely different from the way how the original forest used to look like. There are several stages involved after the forest os being burned. The first stage involves the colonization of massively burned places by plants and fungi. The following stage starts when minuscule plants such as grasses dwell in the forest. And then, huge plants that require lots of direct sunlight will move in. Lastly, new trees will continuously grow up to a point where they makeup a forest that remains in time except there are major interventions.
