Table 1 Importance of major mechanisms to succession on volcanoes and habitats studied: comparison among well-studied volcanoes. Y = mechanism important; N = limited importance; TBD = to be determined; NA = not applicable; Monitoring: PLN = PLANNED; I = intermittent. Dispersal importance relative as it shifts during succession; 1 = most important; 3 = least important. Footnotes refer to principal papers dealing with succession on the several volcanoes. Kasatochi data are from papers cited in text.
