Measures of Niche Overlap, I [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Medicine and Biology, 1986
Many methods of measuring niche overlap have been proposed, such as those of Renkonen, Morisita, and Horn. In this paper, conditions are put forward which overlap indices should reasonably be expected to satisfy. A general description of a good index is given, which covers as special cases those of the well-known indices which satisfy all the ...

Structural Network Properties of Niche-Overlap Graphs [PDF]

open access: yes2013 International Conference on Signal-Image Technology & Internet-Based Systems, 2013
The structure of networks has always been interesting for researchers. Investigating their unique architecture allows to capture insights and to understand the function and evolution of these complex systems. Ecological networks such as food-webs and niche-overlap graphs are considered as complex systems. The main purpose of this work is to compare the

Patterns of dietary niche breadth and overlap are maintained for two closely related carnivores across broad geographic scales

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Ecological studies investigating niche breadth and overlap often have limited spatial and temporal scale, preventing generalizations across varying environments and communities.

Measures of Niche Overlap, II [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Medicine and Biology, 1986
In part I, see the preceding review, Zbl 0633.92017, a number of properties that a reasonable measure of overlap might be expected to possess are proposed in the form of axioms, and their motivations and consequences are also discussed from a biological viewpoint.

Large scale field-based evaluation of niche breadth, niche overlap and interspecific association of Western Himalayan temperate forest tree species

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Understanding niche and its parameters including niche breadth and niche overlap hold promise in discerning the needs, tolerances of organisms and also the extent of niche overlap among the sympatric species.

Niche Overlap as a Function of Environmental Variability [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1972
The relationship between environmental variability and niche overlap is studied for a class of model biological communities in which several species compete on a one-dimensional continuum of resources, e.g., food size. In a strictly unvarying (deterministic) environment, there is in general no limit to the degree of overlap, short of complete ...

Modeling and Empirical Analysis of Regional Tourism Competitiveness Based on Niche Theory

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2021
The fierce competition in tourism has brought a string of problems, such as the homogeneous development of regional tourism resources and the escalation of regional competition.
