Population dynamics

interaction between individuals or species; fitness of one organism lowered by the presence of another organism

event that reduces size and genetic variation of a population, followed by a size recovery

conservation category for species categorized as rare, very rare, or depleted

mathematical function

the branch of life sciences studying changes in the size and age composition of populations

phenomenon in biology

biological selection that depends on the abundance of each phenotype in the population

fishing practices intended not to cause the fish population to decline over time

average time from one generation to another within the same population

density-dependent processes occur when population growth rates are regulated by the density of a population

model of multi-species population dynamics

population decline of Atlantic cod due in large part to overfishing
