Competitive Hierarchies is a theoretical construct in community ecology that organizes interacting species according to their relative competitive abilities, distinguishing it from other interaction models by explicitly ranking species along a dominance gradient that predicts resource access and ecological outcomes in structured environments such as coral reefs and plant communities.
