Stoichiometrically Explicit Food Webs: Feedbacks between Resource Supply, Elemental Constraints, and Species Diversity (2009, methodology): “To create this integration, I use the mechanistic niche concept (Chase & Leibold 2003; Leibold 1995, 1996), which involves characterizing a species by two interrelated components.”
Spatiotemporal dynamics in a seasonal metacommunity structure is predictable: the case of floodplain‐fish communities (2013, background): “soil characteristics, temperature, habitat size) and biotic interactions that range from intraspecific and interspecific competition for local resources up to predator–prey relationships (Chase and Leibold 2003).”
Reconciling niche and neutrality: the continuum hypothesis. (2006, background): “This view appears to be implicitly shared by many ecologists (Hurtt & Pacala 1995; Hubbell 2001; Chase & Leibold 2003; Barot 2004; Gaston & Chown 2005), but has not yet been formally incorporated in models that can explore the relative importance of niche vs. neutral processes.”
INTERPRETATION OF MODELS OF FUNDAMENTAL ECOLOGICAL NICHES AND SPECIES' DISTRIBUTIONAL AREAS (2005, background): “Some recent treatments of niche concepts include both ecological requirements of species and their impacts on those niche factors (Chase and Leibold, 2003).”
Measuring ecological niche overlap from occurrence and spatial environmental data (2012, methodology): “Historically, such assessments have focused primarily on differences in local trophic and reproductive habits (reviewed in Chase & Leibold, 2003) and have asked: How much does resource use by species A overlap with that of species B?”
Potential of remote sensing to predict species invasions (2015, background): “SDMs may be correlative (ecological niche models, ENMs) or mechanistic (physiologicallybased demographic models, PBDMs), and are rooted in niche theory (Chase and Leibold, 2003; Elton, 1927; Grinnell, 1917; Hutchinson, 1957).”
Limiting similarity and functional diversity along environmental gradients (2005, methodology): “In our model, unlike in resource-drawdown models ( Chase & Leibold 2003 ), plants have no feedback effects on the gradient.”
The geographic scaling of biotic interactions (2013, background): “…into account, such as varying the ecological niches of species (both in the sense of species affecting and being affected by the environment, Chase and Leibold 2003, Peterson et al. 2011), or dispersal (both in the sense of species having the ability to disperse and being prevented from it…”
Historical Contingency in Community Assembly: Integrating Niches, Species Pools, and Priority Effects (2015, background): “…“the environmental conditions that allow a species to satisfy its minimum requirements so that the birth rate of a local population is equal to or greater than its death rate along with the set of per capita effects of that species on these environmental conditions” (Chase & Leibold 2003, p. 15).”
