In some of these cases, among-individual foraging niche accounted for most of the total population niche width.
Examining the niches of mainland and island birds, Van Valen proposed that population niche width expansion can occur via increased among-individual variation in foraging, such as he observed in island bird populations that were released from interspecific competition.
Thus, islands wolves, which had wider sub-population niche width, also showed greater among-individual variation.
This allowed us to evaluate whether an area with larger sub-population niche width also showed greater inter-individual variation.
Among-individual variation can comprise the majority of a population's niche width, and only when the within-individual component of total niche width is constrained does between-individual variation become prominent.
In this paper, we show how the capacity of evacuation doors is affected by the evacuation door width, population composition, the presence of an open door and evacuation conditions.
Quantifying inter-individual niche variation can play a critical role in understanding a population's niche width [6].
A growing number of studies show that the majority of a population's niche width is determined by inter-individual variation [33] [35].
In solution NMR, inherent conformational dynamics can be estimated through three primary observables: chemical shift, signal intensity (relative population), and line width.
We also aimed to determine factors, which may predispose to anterior clear space opening and AITFL laxity in the normal population, how this width changes with rotational loading and to determine predisposing factors which lead to increased opening.
