Answer:
Ecological succession happens when new life takes over an environment. ... Primary succession begins in barren areas, such as on bare rock exposed by a retreating glacier. The first inhabitants are lichens or plants—those that can survive in such an environment
Ecological restoration aims to recreate, initiate, or accelerate the recovery of an ecosystem that has been disturbed. Disturbances are environmental changes that alter ecosystem structure and function. Common disturbances include logging, damming rivers, intense grazing, hurricanes, floods, and fire
Secondary succession is usually faster than primary succession because soil and nutrients are already present due to 'normalization' by previous pioneer species, and because roots, seeds and other biotic organisms may still be present within the substrate
