Population Size
01 Size
3 Key Features
>Size is the number of
of Population
individuals in an area
•Growth rate:

>Birth Rate (natality) - Death Rate (Morality)


>How many individuals are born vs. how many die
> Birth rate(b) - death rate(d) = rate of nature increase(r)

Population Density
02 Density

3 Key Features
>Density is the measurement of
of Population
population per unit area or unit
volume

Pop. Density = of individual ÷ unit of


space
How do you affect Population Density?

1. Immigration : movements of
individuals into a population

2. Emigration : movements of
individuals out of a population
How do you affect Population Density?
3. Density-dependent factors : Biotic
factors in the environment that have
an increasing effect as population
side increases (disease,parasite,
competition)

4. Density-independen factors :
Abiotic factors in the environment
that affect the population regarding
their density (temperature, weather)

-Trees in a given area

2. Sampling method -Selective ccounting of population

3. Mark-Recaptured
-Used for very mobile or elusive species
method

>Dispersion decribe the spacing
of Population
of organism relatively to each
other

•Clumped
•Uniform
•Random
