Sukcese je jedním ze zásadních ekologických procesů intenzivně zkoumaným po více než sto let. Znalost sukcesních změn konkrétních ekosystémů je nezbytná pro jejich efektivní ochranu a ekologickou obnovu. V prvním dílu jsou čtenáři seznámeni s historií výzkumu, základními koncepty, pojmy a metodickými přístupy při studiu sukcese.

Succession is one of the fundamental ecological processes intensively studied for more than a hundred years. Knowledge of successional changes in specific ecosystems is essential for their effective protection and restoration. In the first part, readers are introduced to the history of research, basic concepts, terms and methodological approaches in the study of succession.
