24 – 25 November, Symposium: N-dimensional Hypervolumes in Ecology and Beyond
Niche theory is one of the most fundamental concepts in ecology and has long been conceptualized as n-dimensional hypervolumes (sensu Hutchinson 1957). Only recently, satisfying mathematical and algorithmic treatments of hypervolumes have been realized. The ability to quantify the size and the overlap of n-dimensional hypervolumes is an important methodological and conceptual step in ecology, but may also open new frontiers in various other disciplines.
