Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRestoration of Biodiversity and EcosystemIgnacio Santa-Regina, M. C. Santa-ReginaSuccession is one of the most studied processes in ecology and succession theory provides strong predictability. However, few attempts have been made to influence the course of succession thereby testing the hypothesis that the passage of one stage is essential to enter a next one. At each stage of succession ecosystem processes may be affected by the diversity of species … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 10 Mar 2013 · 6,984 accessesView PDFCite
