SUMMARY:The role of individual differences in defining a species niche - A

DESCRIPTION:Many predictive models of the spatial and temporal distributio
 n of species (e.g. in response to climate change or species introductions)
  assume that species have one environmental niche that applies to all indi
 viduals. However\, there is growing evidence that individuals within a spe
 cies can have individual niches that are narrower than the species niche (
 "individual specialization").  Individual specialization has mainly been s
 tudied in terms of dietary niches\, but recent tracking data also allows a
 nalysis of individual specialization in terms of abiotic environmental nic
 he. In this project\, I develop a method to quantify individual specializa
 tion in environmental space and apply it to a data set of Black-browed alb
 atrosses.
