  2. Physiological density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physiological_density

    The physiological density or real population density is the number of people per unit area of arable land. A higher physiological density suggests that the available agricultural land is being used by more and may reach its output limit sooner than a country that has a lower physiological density. Egypt is a notable example, with physiological ...

  3. Population density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_density

    Population density is the number of people per unit of area, usually transcribed as "per square kilometer" or square mile, and which may include or exclude, for example, areas of water or glaciers. Commonly this is calculated for a county, city, country, another territory or the entire world. The world's population is around 8,000,000,000 [3 ...

  6. Population ecology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_ecology

    A demographic structure of a population is how populations are often quantified. The total number of individuals in a population is defined as a population size, and how dense these individuals are is defined as population density. There is also a population's geographic range, which has limits that a species can tolerate (such as temperature).

  7. Population dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_dynamics

    The half-life of a population is the time taken for the population to decline to half its size. We can calculate the half-life of a geometric population using the equation: N t = λ t N 0 by exploiting our knowledge of the fact that the population (N) is half its size (0.5N) after a half-life. [20]

    Population graph of Hong Kong. The following census data is available for Hong Kong between the years 1841–2011. In 2011, Hong Kong had a population of just over 7 million, with a density of approximately 6,300 people per square kilometer. This makes Hong Kong the fourth most densely populated region in the world, after Macau, Monaco, and ...
