I am wondering - How does species diversity change along the successional sequence?

For example, as attached in the figure,  Shannon's Diversity Index increases during early stage of succession (say 15-25 years), then at an intermediate stage (say around 50 years) drops, and rise again during 50 - 70 years of succession but again drops after 70 years of succession.
