Chapter 13: Confronting Field Data: Adapting the Models to Other Fertility or Growth Patterns

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  27 June 2018

Extract

This work deals almost exclusively with stationary populations whose fertility function is assumed to be approximated by the K(X) values developed in Chapter 6. It is appropriate to consider how the shape of the fertility function may be adjusted to fit unusual field situations. Then we can show how the models can be adapted for populations with nonzero growth rates.
