http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/Collections/Demography/

Extractions: Contents: The UC Berkeley Library collections in Demography support the research and teaching of the Department of Demography, as well as of the many other departments and programs with an interest in demography and population studies. The Department of Demography , in the College of Letters and Sciences, offers a highly interdisciplinary training program leading to the M.A. and Ph.D. in demography. Demography is an increasingly important area of study, with important links to many pressing policy issues such as economic development of Third World countries, population aging, the environment, health and mortality, family change, economic activities of women, immigration and ethnicity, and declining birth rates. It also has strong links to other fields such as economics, sociology, social history, anthropology, and statistics. The program is one of the very few in the United States granting graduate degrees in demography, rather than offering demography only as a field of specialization within some other department. The program stresses quantitative aspects of demography and demography in the context of social science theory. Although there is no undergraduate major, undergraduates may complete a minor in demography. There are 4 principal faculty members and 8 faculty members in other departments who are affiliated with the program. About five new graduate students are admitted each year to the Ph. D. program, and the program offers 8 undergraduate and 19 graduate-level courses. Twenty-two Ph.D. degrees were granted between 1985 and 1993.

Extractions: Home HOME Marbled Murrelets ( Brachyramphus marmoratus ) are small seabirds that live along the northern Pacific Coast of North America. They are listed as Threatened by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) and are on the provincial Red-list in British Columbia. The species is also listed as Threatened in Washington, Oregon and California. Marbled Murrelets are secretive birds with a unique life history and it is only recently that scientists have begun to learn about the details of Marbled Murrelet biology. In response to their threatened listing, a Marbled Murrelet Recovery Team was established in 1993 to plan the long-term conservation of Marbled Murrelets. The Recovery Team consists of federal and provincial government agencies, industry and non-governmental organizations. Research conducted by members of the recovery team and thier colleagues has increased our knowledge of Marbled Murrelet biology. Nest sites have been located and information about Marbled Murrelet distributions and movements has been collected. This new knowledge is fundamental to revising the Recovery Plan for the Marbled Murrelet. This web site provides some background to the Marbled Murrelet biology and issues in BC, and provides examples of some of the types of research and monitoring that are currently being conducted.
Tanzania -- Demography

http://www.sas.upenn.edu/African_Studies/NEH/tz_demog.html

Extractions: Since independence, the government of Tanzania has conducted three official censuses, in 1967, 1978, and 1988. The 21 years between the first and most recent censuses showed a dramatic increase in population from 2,313,469, to 17,512,610, then to 23,174,336 over the two decades. In 1992 the United Nations Fund for Population Activities (UNFPA) launched a four-year US$21 million program to help slow Tanzania's 3% average annual population growth rate, which was then among the highest in the world. Population densities on the mainland average 26 people per square kilometer; in Zanzibar densities are typically about 260 people per square kilometer. Actual population distributions are uneven, varying from one person per square kilometer in semi-arid locations on the mainland to more than 70 people per square kilometer in the wetter and more fertile rural areas [1] . The population is currently estimated at 30,608,769 (July 1998). Population Year 1950 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010 Millions 7.9 10.1 13.3 18.4 24.4 32.3 42.

Martin and Samuel H. Preston, Editors; Committee on Population, National Research Council 424 pages, 6 x 9, 1994. As the United States and the rest of the world face the unprecedented challenge of aging populations, this volume draws together for the first time state-of-the-art work from the emerging field of the demography of aging. The nine chapters, written by experts from a variety of disciplines, highlight data sources and research approaches, results, and proposed strategies on a topic with major policy implications for labor forces, economic well-being, health care, and the need for social and family supports.

Calerga - Demography With SysQuake
Demographic evolution with SysQuake. SysQuake lets you understand quickly andeasily the effect of parameters on the evolution of a complex system.
http://www.calerga.com/products/SysQuake/demogr.html

Extractions: News SysQuake lets you understand quickly and easily the effect of parameters on the evolution of a complex system. As an example, here is a simulation of the evolution of the Swiss population, starting with the data collected during the last census in 1990. The left figure shows the 1990 population pyramid, which corresponds exactly to the census of 1990; women are displayed in pink and men in blue, between and 99 years old. The right figure shows how the Swiss population will change in the next century if the birth and death rates are fixed. You can see a maximum at about 7.1 millions people in 2004; then the population decreases, forever if the birth and death rates remain constant. What will be the shape of the population pyramid in 2020? Here SysQuake shows its real power. Just drag the vertical green line in the right figure and look how the left figure is updated continuously (in this web page, interaction is replaced by coarse animations; just look at the figures). What can we observe? Since about 1968, the birth rate has dropped. About 20 years later, there are suddenly much less women who can become mothers, so the number of babies drops a second time; and so on until the ripples are damped, as we can see by continuing the simulation until 2300 (changing the time scale of the population evolution graphic is necessary, which requires two or three mouse clicks). Of course, a lot of things can happen in the meantime, and a Swiss population of 700,000 in 2300 is extremely uncertain; but you get a good understanding of how this simple demographic model works.
