Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract The stability hypothesis posits that stable environments provide species with predictable resources, where mechanisms that limit similarity, such as competition, are able to drive niche specialization and shape community composition. By contrast, variable and unpredictable environments are expected to allow only those species with appropriate ...
