This piece explores the mathematical models and dynamics of population growth, focusing on two primary types: exponential and logistic growth. The equations for non-overlapping and overlapping populations are discussed, illustrating how intrinsic growth rates and carrying capacities influence population size. Key terms such as birth rates, death rates, and reproductive rates provide a framework for understanding population changes over time. Various figures illustrate concepts, including J-shaped and S-shaped growth patterns, equipping readers with foundational knowledge of population dynamics.

  1. Populations

  2. Population growth • Nt + 1 = Nt + B – D + I – E

  3. Population growth • Nt + 1 = Nt + B – D + I – E • Nt + 1 = Nt + B – D (assume no I and E)

  13. Exponential growth: # increase by constant factor (R or reproductive rate) each time interval

  14. Nt = N0RtR = 2, N0 = 1, t = 5Nt = 1 * 25 = 32

  15. Nt = N0RtR = 2, N0 = 1, t = 5Nt = 1 * 25 = 32 Mathematical model for non-overlapping (discrete) populations

  16. dN/dt = rNr = intrinsic rate of increaser = birth rate (b) – death rate (d) Mathematical model for overlapping populations

  17. dN/dt = rN r > 0 population will grow r = 0 population won’t change r < 0 population will shrink

  23. Fig. 52.11 The patterns of exponential and logistic population growth

  24. dN/dt = r N [(K - N)/K] For: r=0.1 K=100 if N = 10 dN/dt = .1 (10) [(100 - 10)/100] = .1 (10) (.9) = .9 if N = 99 dN/dt = .1 (99) [(100 - 99)/100] = .1 (99) (.01) = .099

  25. What do I need to know about these models? ExponentialLogistic Pattern: J-shaped S-shaped Equation*: dN/dt = rN dN/dt = rN[(K-N)/K] Assumptions: -growth rate constant growth rate decreases with pop size -unlimited env. carrying capacity * Know what each term means and how changes in the terms affect the pattern of population growth.

  26. Sometimes population growth is independent of density
