4th in line.
Consonance- using the same consonant multiple times in succession. Assonance- repetition of vowel sounds in words in short succession.
Succession planning is a process which is used in businesses to identify internal people in HR resources. This is also something referred to as replacement planning.

They are part of primary succession.

A xerosere is a succession of ecological communities which originated in a dry habitat such as a sand desert or sand dunes.
It is a phenomenon or process by which an ecological community undergoes more or less orderly and predictable changes following a disturbance or the initial colonization of a new habitat. Succession may be initiated either by formation of new, unoccupied habitat, such as from a lava flow or a severe landslide, or by some form of disturbance, such as from a fire, severe wind-throw, logging, of an existing community. Succession that begins in new habitats, uninfluenced by pre-existing communities is called primary succession, whereas succession that follows disruption of a pre-existing community is called secondary succession
Ecological succession is the phenomenon or process by which an ecological community undergoes more or less orderly and predictable changes following disturbance or initial colonization of new habitat. Succession was among the first theories advanced in ecology and the study of succession remains at the core of ecological science

Ecological Succession
Things in nature are not black and white, and there are intermediate stages so this makes this question somewhat difficult.Succession that begins in new habitats, uninfluenced by preexisting communities is called primary succession, whereas succession that follows disruption of a preexisting community is called secondary succession.Primary succession: the development of plant and animal life in an area without topsoil; the development of biotic communities in a previously uninhabited and barren habitat with little or no soil.Pioneer succession doesn't exist as a succession term, but pioneer species do.The definition of primary succession fits as the answer to your question.
Primary succession begins in areas where no soil is present.Secondary succession occurs in areas where there is soil already present.Ecological succession refers to orderly changes in an ecological community. These changes may happenbecause of the start of a new empty habitat (after a landslide, glacier, nuclear explosion, lava flow or even concreting), where all traces of previous biological material, even soil have been wiped out (Primary), orby some sort of disturbance (like bush fires, harvesting or logging) of an already existing habitat, which is not severe enough to kill everything. So plants can regrow and seeds spring up again (Secondary).Primary succession's the succession taking place at a venue where no ecosystems has ever existed (300yrs) and secondary succession's a succession at a venue where an ecosystem was once established but deceased due to human impacts or natural disasters.
Primary succession occurs on ground which had no previous vegetation, including lava flows, bare rock and sand dunes. For example, newly created volcanic islandSecondary Succession follows the destruction or modification of existing vegetation, either naturally or by human activity. For example, section of a forest destroyed by fire.Ecosystems are constantly changing in response to natural and human disturbances. As an ecosystem changes, older inhabitants gradually die out and new organisms move in, causing further changes in the community.Primary Succession occurs on surfaces where no soil exists, And Secondary Succession follows a disturbance that destroys a community without destroying the soil.Primary succession is slow and secondary succession is rapid.Primary succession begins in areas where no soil is present.Secondary succession occurs in areas where there is soil already present.Ecological succession refers to orderly changes in an ecological community.

Succession is the process by which a habitat changes over time as different plants get established. This process can occur from bare rock up to an old-growth forest, and can get reset by a disturbance such as fire. The path of succession varies from one habitat type to another, but the general idea goes like this: Bare rock ---> Lichens --> Mosses --> Grasses & Forbs --> Brush --> Deciduous hardwood forest --> Mixed deciduous-coniferous forest --> Coniferous forest --> Old growth coniferous forest
Primary succession happens in a place where there is no soil and as a gradual growth of an ecosystem over a long period of time. Secondary succession occurs where there is already vegetation but has been destroyed by a natural disaster.
