Demography and Population Growth Demography 族群統計學、人口統計學 The quantitative description of a population Population 族群 A group of conspecifics inhabits a specific place at a specific time. . The demographic and genetic populations are not necessarily the same. . Demographic distinction and genetic difference are not necessarily corresponding.
Demography and Population Growth . Population characteristics . Quantitative parameters . Population difference: density, age distribution . Population growth and quantitative methods . Population determination factors . Offspring production and energy invest . Population genetics variation . Intrapopulation behavior
Population density 族群密度 . abundant 豐富的 . common 普遍 . rare 稀有 . endangered 瀕危(絕)的 . extinct 絕滅的 eg. Zacco pachycephalus粗首獵 (溪哥) endemic to Taiwan, but common in west coasts
Sampling methods: . Traps 陷阱 . Fecal pellets 糞便 . Vacuolization frequencies 鳴叫頻度 . pelt records 生皮記錄 . Catch per unit effort (CPUE) 單位努力漁獲量 . Percentage ground cover 遮蔽度 . Frequency of abundance along transects or in quadrants of known area. 穿越線或四分區豐度。 . Feeding damage 食害程度。 . Roadside spotting in a standard distance 單位長度內視察的記錄。
Estimates of absolute density-1 . Proportion of population marked = (no. of animals marked at t1) / (total no, of animals in population) . Proportion of sample marked = (no. of marked animals captured at t2) / (total no. of animals captured at t2)
Estimates of absolute density-2 If random sampling, Proportion of population marked = proportion of sample marked t1標示個體/族群數量 ﹦t2再捕獲標示個體數/t2捕獲數 (已知數)(未知數) (已知數) (已知數) Assumptions: 1.標記不會對於個體有增加死亡率的危險 2.標記不會影響再捕捉的機率(記憶與學習) 3.實驗期間族群內個體沒有移入或移出的問題 4.實驗期間沒有死亡或新生的變化

Statistical methods:-1 . Poisson distribution Px=axe-a/x! P = Poisson probability x = No. of occurrences a = The mean number of occurrences e = The base of the natural log
Statistical methods:-2 方差/平均數比率指標 If s2/x(mean / variance) > 1 hyperdispersion If s2/x(mean / variance) < 1 aggregation Significant test (n-1)s2/x x : mean S2 : variance
Life Tables 壽命表 是一種記載和描述出生後的一定數量的個體,隨著生命過程而損失,減少的規律的一種方法,是描述種群的死亡與存活過程的一種有效手段。
Life Tables 壽命表 1. age specific (cohort analysis) 群對分析,年齡群特性。 Short-lived animal: 2. time-specific (static)靜態分析,時間特性。 long-lived animals.
age-specific life table 特定年齡壽命表 =dynamic life table =horizontal life table 以一特定世代群體的命運為根據,跟蹤該世的整個生活史,每隔一定時間統計存活數與死亡數。 .優點 .可反映出與密度相關的死亡率與繁殖率變化。 .分析種群數量變動與調節的機制。 缺點 .不易掌握全世代的生物資料。
Time specific life table 特定時間壽命表 =Stationary or Vertical life table 由不同年齡組組成的群體及估算的各年齡組的死亡率為根據。 優點 .可在短時間內獲得所需資料 缺點 .不同世代會有不同歷史背景 .推理不易來自隨機的取樣 .種群結構不易穩定
Composite life table 綜合壽命表 取不同來源的資料平均值作壽命表 (B) birth 種群大小 death (D) dn=B-D Net reproductive rate: Ro Ro = lx mx ln = surviving proportion mx = age-specific fertility

Life Tables • Date on numbers of individuals at each age • Construct life tables • Demonstrate the age structure of a population • Life table construction – demography
Life Tables • Life table construction – demography (cont.). • How a population will grow • Construction of data • Follow a cohort from births to deaths (age specific life table)
Life Tables • Time-specific life table • Snapshot – age structure at a single point in time (time-specific life table) • Useful in examining long-lived animals • Ex. Dall Mountain Sheep (Figure 6.1 and Table 6.1)

Life Tables • Useful parameters in the life tables (Deevey 1947) • x = age class or interval • nx = number of survivors at beginning of age interval x. • dx = number of organisms dying between age intervals = nx – nx=1 • lx = proportion of organisms surviving to the beginning of age interval x = ns / n0
Life Tables • Useful parameters in the life tables (Deevey 1947) (cont.). • qx = rate of mortality between age intervals = dx / ns • ex = the mean expectation of life for organisms alive at the beginning of age x • Lx = average number alive during an age class = (ns+ ns+1) / 2 • Tx = intermediate step in determining life expectancy = SLx
Life Tables • ex = the mean expectation of life for organisms alive (cont.). • Ex = Tx / nx • Assumptions that limit the accuracy of time-specific life tables • Equal number of offspring are born each year • Favorable climate for breeding? • A need for an independent method for estimating birth rates of each age class
Life Tables • Assumptions that limit the accuracy of time-specific life tables (cont.). • As a result, age-specific life tables are typically reported • Age-specific life tables • Needed for short-lived organisms • Time-specific life tables biased toward the stage common at the moment
Life Tables • Follows one cohort or generation • Population censuses must be frequent and conducted over a limited time • Ex. Table 6.2 and Figure 6.3

Life Tables • General types of survivorship curves (Figure 6.4) • Type I • Most individuals are lost when they are older • Vertebrates or organisms that exhibit parental care and protect their young • Small dip at young age due to predators
