- 1Physiological Population DensityThe ratio of people to the amount of arable land
- 2Arithmetic Population DensityThe ratio of people to a total area of land
- 3Doubling TimeThe number of years needed to double a population
- 4Dependency RatioThe number of people under 15 and over 64, compared to people in the labor force
- 5EcumeneThe portion of earth's surface that's occupied by permanent human settlement
- 6Epidemiological Transition ModelThe distinctive causes of death in each stage of the demographic transition
- 7DemographyThe scientific study of population characteristics
- 8Infant Mortality RateThe total number of annual deaths among infants (under 1) for every 1,000 births
- 9Overpopulationwhen the number of people in an area exceed the amount of resources capable of sustaining them
- 10Population ExplosionRapid growth of a population; shorter doubling time and accelerating natural increase rates
- 11Population Pyramidbar graph that displays a populations by age and gender
- 12Rate Of Natural IncreaseThe percentage growth of a population a year (crude birth rate- crude death rate)
- 13Zero Population GrowthA decline of the total fertility rate to the point where the rate of natural increase is 0
- 14Sex RatioThe number of males per 100 females in a population
- 15Population Distributionhow a group of people are spread out across an area of space
- 16Thomas Malthusfirst to spread the idea that growing population will outrun food supplies
- 17Age DistributionThe distribution of among age groups in a population
- 18CohortA population group in which every member shares a specific common characteristic
- 19Disease DistributionContagious- spread through the density of a population
Hierarchical- along high density areas that spread from urban to rural areas - 20UnderpopulationA drop/ decrease in a regions population.
- 21SustainabilityThe level of development that can be maintained without depleting resources.
- 22Standard of LivingGoods and services and their distribution within a population
- 23Population ProjectionEstimation of future population growth; determined by current trends in a population known as growth factors
- 24Population DistributionHow people are spread out across Earth's surface (patterns of populations)
- 25MortalityThe rate at which people die
- 26Neo-MalthusiansGroup of people who base their theories on Malthus's early notion that the population would eventually run out of resources and wars, famine etc would be the result
- 27Natality RateNumber of births per year for every 1000 people in a population
- 28J-curveThe share of a line graph of population when there is exponential growth.
- 29S-curveTraces the cyclical movement upward and downward in a graph.
- 30Carrying CapacityThe largest number of people that the environment of a particular area can support
- 31Age DistributionThe distribution of ages within a population
- 32Demographic EquationEquation that summarizes the amount of growth/decline in a population during a certain period of time. (takes net migration and natural increase into account)
- 33Demographic MomentumThe tendency for a growing population to continue to grow after a fertility decline because of their young age distribution. Once this happens a population moves to a different stage of the demographic transition model.
- 34Demographic RegionsRegions grouped together by the stage of the demographic transition model that most countries in that region are in.
- 35Gendered SpaceAreas designated specifically for men and women
ex. men/women bathroom - 36MaladaptationAn adaptation that while being reasonable at the time, has become less helpful and more problematic
- 37STAGE 1BIRTH RATES AND DEATH RATES ARE HIGH
- 38STAGE 2BIRTH RATES STILL HIGH DEATH RATES STAY TO DECREASE
- 39STAGE 3BIRTH RATES SLOWLY DECLINE DEATH RATES STILL LOW
- 40STAGE 4BIRTH RATES DECLINE
