KEY CONCEPT Ecological succession is a process of change in the species that make up a population in the community.

Succession occurs following a disturbance in an ecosystem and can affect population size. Succession regenerates or creates a community after a disturbance. a sequence of biotic changes damaged communities are regenerated new communities arise in previously uninhabited areas

There are two types of succession. primary succession — started by pioneer species Ex: Glacier, New Island Key here: soil needs to be created so the process is much longer

There are two types of succession. secondary succession — started by remaining species Ex: Forest fire, flood, earthquake Key here: soil is already present; surviving species colonize and have to start over; process is not as long

2 factors concerning populations POPULATION BIOLOGY Individuals of one species simultaneously occupying the same general area, utilizing the same resources, and influenced by similar environmental factors 2 factors concerning populations -fluctuations in population size -factors that regulate populations.

the number of individuals per unit area or volume POPULATION DENSITY the number of individuals per unit area or volume Measuring Density It is usually impractical or impossible to count all individuals in a population, so ecologists use a variety of sampling techniques to estimate densities and total population size. 1. You can count all individuals in a sample plot, or quadrant. These estimates become more accurate as sample plots increase in size or number. 2. You may also estimate by indirect indicators such as number of nests or burrows or by droppings or tracks. 3. Finally one may use the mark-recapture method. In the mark-recapture method, animals are trapped within boundaries, marked and after time retrapped.
