It is a process by which an ecological community undergoes more or less orderly and predictable changes following a disturbance or the initial colonization of a new habitat. Succession may be initiated either by formation of new, unoccupied habitat, such as from a lava flow or a severe landslide, or by some form of disturbance.

This scale-dependent process can be described with different diversity metrics, some of which we will explore in this chapter; others will be introduced later.
