On The Structure and Significance of Ecological Niche Breadth [PDF]
The niche is a core concept in ecology, evolution, and conservation biology that is used to explain the distributions and abundances of organisms through both space and time.

Research on The Evolution of High-tech Industry Competitiveness in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei [PDF]
From the perspective of ecological niche, this paper constructs the evaluation index system of the competitiveness of beijing-tianjin-hebei high-tech industry, and analyzes the competitiveness of beijing-tianjin-hebei high-tech industry from the ...

The evolution of climatic niche breadth in terrestrial vertebrates [PDF]
Interspecific variation in climatic niche breadth underlies many ecological phenomena, yet only recently have studies-focused explicitly on the evolution of climatic niche breadth.

Background The niche breadth of an animal population comprises both within-individual and between-individual variation (individual specialization). Both components can be used to explain changes in population niche breadth, and this has been extensively ...

A classification system for predicting invasiveness using climatic niche traits and global distribution models: application to alien plant species in Chile [PDF]
Functional traits that predict plant invasiveness are a central issue in invasion ecology. However, in many cases they are difficult to determine, especially for a large set of species.

Interspecies trophic niche differences and spatial–temporal adaptations found in Cultrinae fishes
It has been debated whether interspecies niche differences may follow niche conservatism, whether niches are becoming specialists, whether generalists and specialists are maintained in a balance, and how the realized niche may adapt to local or temporal ...

Isotopic niches support the resource breadth hypothesis [PDF]
SummaryBecause a broad spectrum of resource use allows species to persist in a wide range of habitat types, and thus permits them to occupy large geographical areas, and because broadly distributed species have access to more diverse resource bases, the resource breadth hypothesis posits that the diversity of resources used by organisms should be ...

Impacts of Niche Breadth and Dispersal Ability on Macroevolutionary Patterns [PDF]
We describe a spatially explicit simulation experiment designed to assess relative impacts of macroecological traits on patterns of biological diversification under changing environmental conditions. Using a simulation framework, we assessed impacts of species' niche breadth (i.e., the range of their abiotic tolerances) and dispersal ability on ...
