Population ecology is the study of populations in relation to their environments and vice versa
How Abiotic and biotic factors influence abundance dispersion and age structure in populations
Population is a group of individuals of a single species living in the same general area
Density is the number of individuals per unit area or volume
Dispersion is the pattern of spacing among individuals within the boundaries a population is in
Mark recapture method is a way to measure density and dispersion in populations by marking a population and tracking its dispersion to compare to the species as a whole
Demography is the study of these vital stats of populations and how they change over time
Life table summarizes the survival and reproduction rates of members of a population, usually the members tracked are called a cohort
Survivorship curve is a way to graphically represent the survival rate
Measuring changes in population size in natural conditions is done with the equation:
Births+Immigrants entering population - deaths- Emigrants leaving the population
