Secondary succession refers to the series of community variations that occurs on a previously colonized but damaged or disturbed habitat. The examples include the regions that have been cleared of prevailing vegetation, like after tree-felling in a woodland and destructive occurrences like fires.

A climax community is an ecological community in which populations of animals or plants remain stable and prevail in equilibrium with each other and their surroundings. A climax community refers to the ultimate phase of succession, remaining comparatively unchanged until destructed by an incident like human interference or fire.

Thus, the stable state of vegetation development in a region with time during secondary succession signifies climax community.
