Climatic niche comparison across a cryptic species complex [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
According to current molecular evidence, the Chionaspis pinifoliae heterophyllae species complex has been recognized as 10 cryptic species. In this study, we construct potential distribution maps for seven cryptic species based on climatic variables ...

At home in the tropics: seasonal niche-tracking by the Yellow-green Vireo, Vireo flavoviridis, an intratropical migrant

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2023
Migratory birds move geographically by tracking specific climatic conditions through time. However, we lack information about the climatic conditions birds are tracking, especially in intratropical migrants, whose movements are contained inside the ...

Ecological Niche and Interspecific Association of Plant Communities in Alpine Desertification Grasslands: A Case Study of Qinghai Lake Basin

Plants, 2022
The study of niche and interspecific relationships is one of the classical ecological theories. We set up four desertification gradients. The “Levins” and “Pianka” method were used to calculate the species’ niche breadth and niche overlap.

Niche of woody plant populations in Picea purpurea community in the upper Taohe River

Ecological Indicators
The niche of plant populations is affected by the environment, species characteristics and anthropogenic disturbance. Picea purpurea, as a major constructive species in the northeastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, had been severely damaged.

Niche overlap among guanaco lineages. [PDF]

, 2013
Similarity (I), Schoener’s distance (D), and Relative Rank index indicate similarity between niche overlap. Range overlap is based on ranges where 0.25 threshold of suitability is assumed.

The relationship between niche breadth and phylogenetic characteristics of eight species of rhubarb on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau, Asia

Ecology and Evolution
The relationship between spatial distribution and phylogeny has been widely debated in recent decades. To understand biogeographic and evolutionary history relationships and to explore the interspecific similarities and phylogenetic correlations of niche

The α-minimum convex polygon as a relevant tool for isotopic niche statistics

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Ecological (isotopic) niche refers to a surface in a two-dimensional space, where the axes correspond to environmental variables that reflect values of stable isotopes incorporated in an animal's tissues.
