Studying old field succession has both fundamental and applied value. The predictability of old field succession and of the effects of various management strategies still needs improvement. Recent works suggest that changes in species trait composition during succession can be better predicted than species composition itself. It has been suggested that changes in plant species diversity affect several ecosystem processes, such as primary productivity, nutrient retention, and vegetation dynamics.
