Defining the niche for niche construction: evolutionary and ecological niches [PDF]

open access: yesBiology and Philosophy, 2021
AbstractNiche construction theory (NCT) aims to transform and unite evolutionary biology and ecology. Much of the debate about NCT has focused on construction. Less attention has been accorded to the niche: what is it, exactly, that organisms are constructing?

The Ecological Niche

1974
The environmental conditions that permit a population to survive permanently, and with which this population interacts, today are usually designated as its “ecological niche.” Originally, the term “niche” did not have the same meaning for all ecologists but this need not be considered here. We above define and use it in the sense of Hutchinson (1958).

Conserved Ecological Niches

Science, 1999
In their report “Conservatism of ecological niches in evolutionary time” (20 Aug., p. [1265][1]), A. T. Peterson et al. demonstrate that geographically isolated sister taxa show little differentiation in ecological niche. Their results imply that ecology diverges slowly in allopatry (the geographic isolation of species), and the authors therefore ...

A niche for isotopic ecology

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, 2007
Fifty years ago, GE Hutchinson defined the ecological niche as a hypervolume in n-dimensional space with environmental variables as axes. Ecologists have recently developed renewed interest in the concept, and technological advances now allow us to use stable isotope analyses to quantify these niche dimensions. Analogously, we define the isotopic niche

The ecological niche of the consortium " Pelochromatium roseum "

Archives of Microbiology, 1998
A dense accumulation of the phototrophic consortium "Pelochromatium roseum" in a small, eutrophic, freshwater lake (Dagowsee, Brandenburg, Germany) was investigated. Within the chemocline, the number of epibionts of the consortia represented up to 19% of the total number of bacteria. Per "P. roseum" a mean value of 20 epibionts was determined.

Analysis of an ecological niche

Mathematical Biosciences, 1987
A model of an ecological niche for different populations of organisms with competition among them is considered using the concepts of food web and niche overlap graph. The descriptive situation is given analytically by means of a strategy game in normal form where the players involved are the respective populations as separate entities.
