Comparison of Trophic Niche Position, Size, and Overlap in an Assemblage of Pacific Rockfish (Genus <i>Sebastes</i>) for Testing Community Composition Models

Comparison of Trophic Niche Position, Size, and Overlap in an Assemblage of Pacific Rockfish (Genus <i>Sebastes</i>) for Testing Community Composition Models

Rockfish (genus <i>Sebastes</i>) assemblages can inform mechanisms of coexistence and maintenance of diversity in ecological communities. Coexistence theory characterizes ecological assemblages as following either a deterministic niche differentiation model, or a stochastic lottery model...
