  2. Population momentum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_momentum

    Population momentum is a consequence of the demographic transition.Population momentum explains why a population will continue to grow even if the fertility rate declines. . Population momentum occurs because it is not only the number of children per woman that determine population growth, but also the number of women in reproductive

  4. Exponential growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_growth

    Exponential growth is a process that increases quantity over time at an ever-increasing rate. It occurs when the instantaneous rate of change (that is, the derivative) of a quantity with respect to time is proportional to the quantity itself.

    RGR is a concept relevant in cases where the increase in a state variable over time is proportional to the value of that state variable at the beginning of a time period. In terms of differential equations, if is the current size, and its growth rate, then relative growth rate is. . If the RGR is constant, i.e., , a solution to this equation is.
