topics
o graph population pyramids
o graph survivorship/reproduction patterns
o compute…
• growth rates & doubling times
• future populations from growth rates
• population estimates per mark/recapture
o demographic transitions & distribution patterns
o human influences






formulas
o (doubling time) = (70) / (% growth rate)

o (% growth rate) = (70) / (doubling time)

o (final population) = (starting population) ( (1.(% growth rate) to the (number of years) degree)

o (population size) = ( (size first sample) (size second sample) ) / (recaptured)
