Structured populations
• Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth
![Page 3: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Population projection matrix model
![Page 4: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Population projection matrix model
• Divides the population into discrete classes
• Tracks the contribution of individuals in each class at one census to all classes in the following census
![Page 5: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
States
• Different variables can describe the “state” of an individual
• Size
• Age
• Stage
![Page 6: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Advantages
• Provide a more accurate portray of populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth
• Help us to make more targeted management decisions
![Page 7: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Disadvantages
• These models contain more parameters than do simpler models, and hence require both more data and different kinds of data
![Page 8: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Estimation of demographic rates
• Individuals may differ in any of three general types of demographic processes, the so-called vital rates
• Probability of survival
• Probability that it will be in a particular state in the next census
• The number of offspring it produces between one census and the next
![Page 9: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Vital rates
• Survival rate
• State transition rate (growth rate)
• Fertility rate
The elements in a projection matrix represent different combinations of these vital rates
![Page 10: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The construction of the stochastic projection matrix
1. Conduct a detailed demographic study
2. Determine the best state variable upon which to classify individuals, as well the number and boundaries of classes
3. Use the class-specific vital rate estimates to build a deterministic or stochastic projection matrix model
![Page 11: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Conducting a demographic study
• Typically follow the states and fates of a set of known individuals over several years
• Mark individuals in a way that allows them to be re-identified at subsequent censuses
![Page 12: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Ideally
• The mark should be permanent but should not alter any of the organism’s vital rates
![Page 13: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Determine the state of each individual
• Measuring size (weight, height, girth, number of leaves, etc)
• Determining age
![Page 14: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Sampling
• Individuals included in the demographic study should be representative of the population as a whole
• Stratified sampling
![Page 15: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Census at regular intervals
• Because seasonality is ubiquitous, for most species a reasonable choice is to census, and hence project, over one-year intervals
![Page 16: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Birth pulse
• Reproduction concentrated in a small interval of time each year
• It make sense to conduct the census just before the pulse, while the number of “seeds” produced by each parent plant can still be determined
![Page 17: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Birth flow
• Reproduce continuously throughout the year
• Frequent checks of potentially reproductive individuals at time points within an inter-census intervals may be necessary to estimate annual per-capita offspring production or more sophisticated methods may be needed to identify the parents
![Page 18: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Special procedures
• Experiments
• Seed Banks
• Juvenile dispersal
![Page 19: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Data collection should be repeated • To estimate the variability in the vital rates
• It may be necessary to add new marked individuals in other stages to maintain adequate sample sizes
![Page 20: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Establishing classes
• Because a projection model categorizes individuals into discrete classes but some state variables are often continuous…
• The first step in constructing the model is to use the demographic data to decide which state variable to use as the classifying variable, and
• if it is continuous, how to break the state variable into a set of discrete classes
![Page 21: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Choosing a state variable
• Apart from practicalities and biological rules-of-thumb
• An ideal state variable will be highly correlated with all vital rates for a population, allowing accurate prediction of an individual’s reproductive rate, survival, and growth
• Accuracy of measurement

An old friend
• AICc = -2(lnLmax,s + lnLmax,f)+
+ (2psns)/(ns-ps-1) + (2pfnf)/(nf-pf-1)
Growth is omitted for two reasons
1. State transitions are idiosyncratic to the state variable used
2. We can only use AIC to compare models fit to the same data
![Page 34: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Setting class boundaries
• Two considerations
1. We want the number of classes be large enough that reflect the real differences in vital rates
2. They should reflect the time individuals require to advance from birth to reproduction
![Page 35: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Early wedding?!!
Do not use too few classes
More formal procedures to make these decisions exist:
Vandermeer 1978,
Moloney 1986
![Page 36: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Estimating vital rates
• Once the number and boundaries of classes have been determined, we can use the demographic data to estimate the three types of class-specific vital rates
![Page 37: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Survival rates
• For stage:
• Determine the number of individuals that are still alive at the current census regardless of their state
• Dive the number of survivors by the initial number of individuals
![Page 38: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Survival rates
• For size or age :• Determine the number of individuals that
are still alive at the current census regardless of their size class
• Dive the number of survivors by the initial number of individuals
• But… some estimates may be based on small sample sizes and will be sensitive to chance variation
![Page 39: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
A solution
• Use the entire data set to perform a logistic regression of survival against age or size
• Use the fitted regression equation to calculate survival for each class
1. Take the midpoint of each size class for the estimate
2. Use the median3. Use the actual sizes
![Page 40: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
State transition rates
• We must also estimate the probability that a surviving individual undergoes a transition from its original class to each of the other potential classes
![Page 41: Demographic PVAs. Structured populations Populations in which individuals differ in their contributions to population growth](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56649f1d5503460f94c341d6/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

• The average number of offspring that individuals in each class produce during the interval from one census to the next
• Stage: imply the arithmetic mean of the number of offspring produced over the year by all individuals in a given stage
• Size: use all individuals in the data set
