Secondary succession occurs in areas where a disturbance has destroyed an existing community but left the soil intact. A volcanic eruption typically creates new land (like a lava flow) with no existing soil, which would lead to primary succession (where life starts from bare rock or new substrate with no soil). Tornado, hurricane, and wildfire usually affect an area where soil is still present, allowing secondary succession to occur as plants can regrow from seeds, roots, etc. in the soil.
