Description: The ability to generate virtual niches enables virtual ecology 
    experiments that have been advocated for evaluating species-environment 
    relationship models. Using multivariate normal distributions and matrix 
    algebra this package provides a unique computational framework to generate 
    integrated fundamental and realised niches, which is important given 
    differences in possible complexity of realised niche shapes that result 
    from biotic interactions Etherington and Omondiagbe (2019) <doi:10.21105/joss.01661>.
