Researched (copied and pasted so use in your own words)
Disturbances such as forest thinning, floods, fire and wind can all lead to secondary succession. Examples of secondary succession are the gradual replacement of old fields by forest or the vegetation recovery and change following wildfire occurrence.
The barnacles are only able to attach them selfs to surfaces in the water. Since the surface is limited, barnacles are attaching themselves to the other barnacles, crowding the rock. The muscles were not able to grow or attach themselves off the surface of the rock. Same thing with the mussels that are growing on the rock. So not only barnacles are crowding the rock, but Mussels as well are crowding the rock.
