Abstract
⺠We studied the natural regeneration of threatened woodland in the Canary Islands. ⺠Succession coincided with variation in soil properties related to water availability. ⺠Soil processes and plant recolonization vary depending on the soil parent material. ⺠Not-reversed soil degradation may hinder the restoration of the ecosystem. ⺠Lower resilience was observed in relation to other semiarid Mediterranean ecosystems.
