Topics and Subtopics:
- Ecological Niches and Habitat Preferences
- Definition of a niche: the role and space a species occupies in an ecosystem.
- Competitive exclusion principle: two species with identical niches cannot coexist.
- Resource partitioning: species sharing resources by utilizing them differently.
- Species Interaction Models
- Lotka-Volterra equations for predator-prey dynamics.
- Competitive exclusion models.
- Mutualistic networks and coevolutionary dynamics.
- Evolutionary Drivers of Species Interactions
- Adaptive radiation and speciation: how new species emerge due to interactions with others.
- Natural selection and coevolution: how species evolve in response to one another.
