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 ...
The definition of niche construction is purposely broad, encompassing how selection is affected both by physical changes that organisms bring about in their environments (‘perturbational niche construction’) and by when they move in space and are exposed to new conditions (‘relocational niche construction’) (Odling-Smee et al. 2003).

4 Δεκ 2020 · This article presents an analysis of content about SD in textbooks in geography and biology for Swedish lower secondary school (grades 7–9, i.e. ages 13–15). The overarching aim of this article is to examine the affordances and limitations of textbooks for promoting action competence for sustainable development.
First, we identify a set of analytical questions at the heart of resource geography and characterize the dominant approaches to these questions - the `production of nature' and the `social construction of nature' - as yielding diminishing returns.
31 Ιαν 2018 · Geography as a science has three fundamental issues to address about geographic space: (1) how it looks, (2) how it works and (3) what it ought to be. The first issue concerns mainly about geographic forms or urban structure, which are governed by two fundamental laws: scaling law (Jiang Citation 2015b ) and Tobler’s Law (Tobler Citation 1970 ).
6 Μαρ 2021 · In this paper, we review the research progress in development geography since the 20th century, focusing on its connotation and theory, fields, methods, and development trends.
