POPULATION ECOLOGY Chapter 53 Population = group of individuals of a single species living in same general area Density: # individuals / area Dispersion: pattern of spacing between individuals Introduction Determining population size and density: Count every individual Random sampling Mark-recapture method Patterns of Dispersal: Clumped ? most common; near required resource Uniform ? usually antagonistic interactions Random ? unpredictable spacing, not common in nature Additions occur through birth, and subtractions occur through death. Life table : age-specific summary of the survival pattern of a population Demography: the study of vital statistics that affect population size Survivorship Curve: represent # individuals alive at each age

Chapter 2: Population Part 1 Mr. Guge, Instructor Fall 2012 Distribution-geographers are concerned about the arrangement of features on the earth?s surface. 3 main properties of distribution are: Density-the frequency that something occurs in a given space. Concentration-changes in distribution-how close together-dispersed or clustered. Pattern-the arrangement of the distribution of features in a given space. 2 Density is an important issue in Population studies-the number of people per square mile in a country might tell you something about living conditions and living standards. Concentration-the population used to be clustered or concentrated in the northeast, but it is becoming more dispersed as many people move to the West, Southwest or South.
