You stated very sussinctly the problem with our models of succession, we are only talking about plants. Why? Animals exist and they can be great drivers of disturbance and biodiversity. The -battle- between vegetation and herbivores is a huge driver of biodiversity. The problem we have with it is that it changes the models of succession we need to have in our heads from linear to circular, ie Frans Vera's model.

One of the better explanations.
Resilient ecologies are functionally adapted to respond to disturbance within specific time and energy scales.
Spruce Budworm cycles within Boreal forests are a good example showing the fallacy of characterizing a stage of adaptive community response as a -Climax- community.

Can you have an answer to that crash course?

So, climate change is good, right? Greta is a marionette in the hands of big political powers whom desire to gain control over you by controlling which and how you access and use energy. All explained now.

Hey hank, the word -stability- was found in the same sentence with the word -ecology-, and it was used correctly (irony, right!

Heraclitus also died after baking himself alive in cow dung, thinking it would cure his illness, but we don't talk about that.
