You can think of it as a newly emerged island waiting to be colonized. This also brings implications for pest management and the species that can establish. What are the characteristics of early successional environments? Are we talking about primary or secondary succession? What are the characteristics of early successional plants? Which kinds do we expect to see in agricultural systems because of this reason? Based on the biodiversity within agricultural systems, what does this mean for insects and resulting pest management?arrow_forwardDiscuss the interrelationships between a coral reef, mangrove, and seagrass ecosystem.
