An event caused by physical, chemical, or biological agents that results in changes in population size or community composition is a disturbance. Natural ecosystem disturbances include hurricanes, ice storms, tsunamis, tornadoes, volcanic eruptions, and forest fires.

Note to students: Please browse the U.N. Millennium Ecosystem Assessment to view the summary of findings about the effect of human disturbance on global ecosystems.

Lake Succession A series of changes (primarily increased sedimentation and vegetation) In which a lake progresses from oligotrophic to mesotrophic to eutrophic to terrestrial
