Demography: statistical study of human population. It encompasses the study of the size, structure and distribution of these populations, and spatial and/or temporal changes in them in response to birth, migration, aging and death. Birth rate = number of births per 1000 inhabitants per year Death rate = number of deaths per 1000 per year It is per 1000 because we want to be able to compare countries of different sizes in population. Net migration= number of immigrants- number of emigrants Positive net migration= more immigrants than emigrants Negative net migration= more emigrants than immigrants Country a Year 1 Year 5 Number of 150 100 deaths Number of 200 150 births Number of 20 15 immigrants Number of 30 10 emigrants Population 5000 6000 size beginning of the year Calculate for year 1 1. birth rates= 40 per 1000 2. death rate= 30 per 1000 3. natural population growth per 1000= 10 4. the net migration rate= negative -10 5. population size at the end of the year=5040 year 5 25 16.66 9.34 positive+ 5 6055
