Changes in Soil Physical and Chemical Properties during Vegetation Succession on Miyake-jima Island

The bare lands formed after volcanic eruptions provide an excellent opportunity to study the interactions between vegetation succession and soil formation. To explore the changes in soil physicochemical properties in the vegetation succession processes and the relationship between them, soil physico...
