Nearest‐neighbor tree species combinations in tropical forest: the role of chance, and some consequences of high diversity (2007, background): “…species pairs and species swarms led to the proliferation of an array of allied concepts (May 1981a, b), foremost among which are the ideas of competitive exclusion, the exclusive niche, and the limiting similarity of species (Hutchinson 1959, 1978, MacArthur and Levins 1967, Pianka 1981).”
Mechanistic and Correlative Models of Ecological Niches (2015, background): “This point was later elaborated by Hutchinson (1957, 1978), in his idea of a ‘biotope’, defined as the geographic area across which the niche requirements of a species are fulfilled.”
Function and “functioning” in ecology: what does it mean? (2005, background): “This perception of ‘‘functional types’’ is also connected to niche concept, namely that of G. E. Hutchinson (1957, 1978), who perceived the niche, so to speak, as the ‘‘clothes’’ of a species in the sense of a matrix of the organism’s requirements.”
When and how should biotic interactions be considered in models of species niches and distributions? (2017, background): “Hutchinson (1978) termed such variables bionomic because the variables classically considered were biotic interactors (especially competitors and predators/prey).”
Human ecological niches and ranges during the LGM in Europe derived from an application of eco-cultural niche modeling (2008, background): “In the case of a biological species, the reasons that create a boundary between competing species are mainly ecological (MacArthur, 1972; Hutchinson, 1978).”
Habitat filtering determines the functional niche occupancy of plant communities worldwide (2018, positive): “One classical approach for assessing the relative importance of different assembly processes involves mapping all species of a community onto an n- dimensional niche space (Hutchinson, 1957), quantifying the niche occupancy structure, and investigating how it varies from species- poor to species- ri”
Niche and area of distribution modeling: a population ecology perspective (2010, background): “Operationally, the core of the distinction between Grinnellian and Eltonian factors is the assumption that there are two types of variables, as Hutchinson (1978) suggested in a seldom-quoted chapter.”
Chesson's coexistence theory (2018, background): “MacArthur, R. H. 1970.”
Grinnellian and Eltonian niches and geographic distributions of species. (2007, background): “The second type of niche variables are environmental conditions for which competition is not relevant (Hutchinson 1978; Austin & Smith 1989): these variables can be specified without resorting to models of exploitation or densities of competitors.”
Hypervolume concepts in niche‐ and trait‐based ecology (2018, background): “The hypervolume then is typically considered in terms of a number of range constraints (Hutchinson 1978), e.g. air temperature above a lethal minimum and below a lethal maximum (Araújo et al. 2013).”
Canopy effects on vegetation caused by harvesting and regeneration treatments (2010, background): “Maximum regeneration densities represent an indicator for differences in ecological niches of tree species in relation to canopy opening (Watt 1925; Hutchinson 1978).”
Hutchinson's heritage: the diversity-disturbance relationship in phytoplankton (2004, positive): “Following his publications carefully, from the rather early papers (e.g. Hutchinson, 1948, 1951, 1953, 1954) to his most famous syntheses (Hutchinson, 1959, 1961, 1978), we discern a recurrent view that the rebuses of coexistence would be solved through the search for potential optima, the…”
The use of specimen-label databases for conservation purposes: an example using Mexican Papilionid and Pierid butterflies (2000, neutral): “For hundreds of species, new modeling techniques are allowing the quantification of those variables in the ‘fundamental niche’ (Hutchinson 1987; Holt and Gaines 1992) that have a geographical expression (Stockwell and Noble 1992, Peterson et al.”
Resource partitioning and niche hyper‐volume overlap in free‐living Pygoscelid penguins (2010, background): “Indeed, the extent of consumption competition appears to modulate the likelihood of species co-existence (cf. Gause 1934) so much that niche shifts have been invoked to explain co-existence in sympatric competing species (cf. Hutchinson 1958, 1959, 1978; Priviter et al. 2008).”
