Effect of imperfect detection on the estimation of niche overlap between two forest dormice

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2018
Quantification of niche overlap represents an important topic in several aspects of ecology and conservation biology, although it could be potentially affected by imperfect detection, i.e., failure to detect a species at occupied sites.

Retracted: Niches of nine mangrove species in a Sonneratia apetala‐colonized area of Dongzhai Harbor, Hainan Island, China

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
The distribution of mangroves is influenced by the environment. We aimed to understand the ecological adaptability of various mangrove species within the range of the exotic species, Sonneratia apetala Buch.‐Ham., in Dongzhai Harbor, Hainan Island, China.

A tale of two seasons: The link between seasonal migration and climatic niches in passerine birds

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
The question of whether migratory birds track a specific climatic niche by seasonal movements has important implications for understanding the evolution of migration, the factors affecting species' distributions, and the responses of migrants to climate ...

Invasion success of a global avian invader is explained by within-taxon niche structure and association with humans in the native range [PDF]

, 2015
Aim To mitigate the threat invasive species pose to ecosystem functioning, reli- able risk assessment is paramount. Spatially explicit predictions of invasion risk obtained through bioclimatic envelope models calibrated with native species distribution ...

The role of geography, environment, and genetic divergence on the distribution of pikas in the Himalaya

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Pikas (Ochotona Link, 1795) are high‐altitude specialist species making them a useful bioindicator species to warming in high‐altitude ecosystem. The Himalayan Mountains are an important part of their range, supporting approximately 23%–25% of total pika

Randomization procedure for niche overlap [PDF]

, 2016
To investigate possible competition between D. ordii and P. flavescens at Salt Valley, we calculated the observed niche overlap for all species–time period combinations.

Niche overlap between species increases with number of resources consumed. [PDF]

, 2023
The niche overlap in the 16 species pools shown in Fig 2. Niche overlap was quantified by the average cosine similarity between the consumption vectors of each species pair in the pool, as in previous studies [33].

Niche breadth and overlap of spotted deer and domestic cattle with swamp deer in tropical region of Nepal

Ecological Processes, 2022
Background Knowledge about the niche overlap among wild species and domestic cattle is helpful to conserve and manage wildlife. We assessed the habitat niche breadth and overlap of sympatrically living spotted deer (Axis axis) and domestic cattle with ...

An assessment of diet overlap of two mesocarnivores in the North-West Province, South Africa [PDF]

, 2009
We used scat analysis to study the diet of two sympatric medium-sized carnivores: brown hyaena and black-backed jackal, in the NorthWest Province of South Africa.
