Population dynamics
- 1. POPULATION DYNAMICS WHY POPULATION SIZE CHANGES
- 2. THE SIZE OF A POPULATION DEPENDS ON A BALANCE BETWEEN SEVERAL THINGS Birth rates Death rates Immigration Emigration Population change, is the difference in the size of a population between the end and the beginning of a given time period (usually one year).
- 3. CRUDE BIRTH RATES: The number of live births per 1000 people in a population. Expressed /1000 or as a percentage. 21/1000 or 2.1% CRUDE DEATH RATES:The number of deaths per 1000 people in a population. Expressed /1000 or as a percentage. natural population change (sometimes “natural increase”) is the number of live births minus the number of deaths. http://epp.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/statistics_explained/index.php/Glossary:Population_change
- 4. ACTUAL INCREASE (or “actual population change”) takes NET MIGRATION into account when calculating the changes in the population size of an area. Migration refers to the number of migrants, people changing their residence to or from a given area (usually a country) during a given time period (usually one year). http://www.movingpeoplechangingplaces.org/uploads/images/migration_peoplemap_smaller.jpg
- 5. Immigrants are people arriving or returning from abroad to take up residence in a country for a certain period, having previously been resident elsewhere Immigration net migration ;the number of immigrants minus the number of emigrants Emigrants are people leaving the country where they usually reside and effectively taking up residence in another country Emigration http://www.jaha.org/edu/discovery_center/push-pull/img/Ellis01.jpg http://www.irishtimes.com/blogs/generationemigration/files/2013/02/departuregates.jp g http://epp.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/statistics_explained/index.php/Glossary:Population_change
- 6. Birth Rates Immigration Birth rate and immigration increase the size of the population NATURAL CHANGE MIGRATION POPULATION Death rate and emigration decrease the size of the population Death Rates Emigration
- 7. Both the CBR and CDR can be examined more closely by looking at other indicators such as: General Fertility Rate: (GFR) the number of births per 1000 women aged 15-49 years. Total Fertility Rate: (TFR) - the total number of children a woman would bear during her lifetime. Child Mortality Rate: the number of deaths in children under the age of 5 per 1000 children. Infant Mortality Rate: The number of deaths of children less that 1 year old per 1000 live births. Life Expectancy: The average number of years a person can be expected to live. http://dontgiveupworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Quote-on-life-and-death.jpg

- 9. The demographic transition model attempts to explain the change in countries from having high birth and death rates to low birth and death rates. In developed countries this transition began in the eighteenth century and continues today. Less developed countries began the transition later and are still in the earlier stages of the model. The model is based on the change in crude birth rate (CBR) and crude death rate (CDR) over time. http://geography.about.com/od/culturalgeography/a/demotransition.htm
