Successional processes in arid regions from "summary" of Floristic Study of Arid Ecosystem: Ecology and Phytosociology by Dr. Ekta B. Joshi,Dr. Hiren B. Soni ,Dr. Pankaj N. Joshi
Successional processes in arid regions are complex and dynamic phenomena that play a crucial role in shaping the structure and composition of plant communities. These processes are driven by a variety of biotic and abiotic factors, including climate, soil characteristics, disturbance regimes, and biotic interactions. In arid ecosystems, where water availability is limited, plant species must adapt to survive and reproduce in harsh environmental conditions. This often results in slow growth rates, long reproductive cycles, and high levels of stress tolerance. As a result, plant communities in arid regions tend to be highly specialized and adap...
