popdemo (version 1.3-3)

Demographic Modelling Using Projection Matrices

Description

Tools for modelling populations and demography using matrix projection models, with deterministic and stochastic model implementations. Includes population projection, indices of short- and long-term population size and growth, perturbation analysis, convergence to stability or stationarity, and diagnostic and manipulation tools.
