Ecological DisturbancesEvery part of an ecosystem interacts with every other part. In a healthy ecosystem, all the parts are in balance, but disruptions happen all the time. Those disruptions can be temporary or permanent. Some smaller disruptions can cause large, long-term changes, while some disturbances may look enormous, but only have a temporary impact.

Primary succession begins on land that has no soil or organic matter, such as regions where volcanic eruptions have taken place. Therefore, the type of land where primary succession would first begin to occur is a region where a volcano erupted. In this scenario, the initial stages of succession start with bare rock, and over time, pioneer species such as lichens and mosses colonize the area, leading to the development of soil and eventually a more complex ecosystem.
