Mechanistic models for niche apportionment are biological models used to explain relative species abundance distributions. These niche apportionment models describe...

Nee (2003) used the model to describe relative species abundances. In many ways this model is similar to niche apportionment models, however, Nee intentionally...

In ecology, a niche is the match of a species to a specific environmental condition. It describes how an organism or population responds to the distribution...

Niche construction is the process by which an organism alters its own (or another species') local environment. These alterations can be a physical change...

Correlative SDMs, also known as climate envelope models, bioclimatic models, or resource selection function models, model the observed distribution of a species...

to their edge of the niche, called niche differentiation. The species do not have to be in separate habitats however to avoid niche overlap. Some species...
