Niche construction refers to the modification of selective environments by organisms. Theoretical and empirical studies of niche construction are increasing in importance as foci in evolutionary ecology. This special edition presents theoretical and ...
16 Αυγ 2024 · Concepts of an organism’s biological environment and of niche construction as how organisms alter their environment and that of other organisms now play prominent roles in multiple sub-fields of biology, including ecology, evolution, and development.
22 Ιουν 2020 · With this theoretical framework we are able to address the dual nature of niche construction by investigating the ephemerality of the landscape (destruction rate) and the continuum of population...
19 Απρ 2024 · One of science’s grand challenges is understanding the structure, dynamics, and evolution of the biosphere. The ultimate goal is to develop quantitative, predictive theories grounded in underlying principles and supported by data, observation, and experiment ().There are two principal reasons for creating such a broad, integrated science of the biosphere.
Niche construction theory is a branch of evolutionary biology that focuses on the capacity of organisms to perturb and modify their environments through their metabolisms, activities, and choices (Odling-Smee et al. 2003).
13 Νοε 2023 · The combination of niche construction theory from evolutionary biology with insights and methods from social ecology combines crucial aspects of measurable sustainability outcomes with long-term effects and a process orientation.
27 Μαρ 2011 · Niche construction theory potentially integrates the biological and social aspects of the human sciences. We elaborate on these processes, and provide brief introductions to each of the papers published in this theme issue.
