2.2.4.2 Density dependent model for population with discrete breeding season
2.2.4.2. Equation for density dependent model for population with discrete breeding season
Nt+T = Nt + [T x r x Nt x (K-Nt/K) ]
K= carrying capacity
Once the Nt approaches K, the expression (K-Nt+/K) approaches ‘o’ and Nt+T comes closer to Nt and at K, Nt +T equals Nt.
Plotting Nt against time shows increase for density dependent populations with discrete breeding seasons.
above Figure shows the effect of ‘r’ and ‘T’ on density dependent populations.
