World Population Growth Through History

4. Total Population = OP + B – D + I – E OP Original Population B Births D Deaths I Immigrants E Emigrants

5. World Population Growth – Rate of natural increase (does not take into account immigration and emigration).

6. World Birth Rate – CBR number of births in a year per 1,000 people.

7. World Mortality Rate – CDR number of deaths in a year per 1,000 people.

8. Today, the pace of world population growth is slowing. Where have Total Fertility Rates (TFRs) fallen below replacement level and why?

9. The Demographic Transition Stage 1: Low Growth Stage 2: High Growth Stage 3: Moderate Growth Stage 4: Low Growth (Stationary) NEW: Stage 5: Declining growth Stationary population level (SPL)

10. The Demographic Transition

11. Note: Natural increase is produced from the excess of births over deaths. The Classic Stages of Demographic Transition

12. Population Composition Age-Sex Diagrams= They tell you 2 things –Age & Gender distribution (within a country, region, or place)

14. Population Pyramids – Charts that show the percentages of each age group in the total population, divided by gender. For poorer countries, the chart is shaped like a pyramid. Infant mortality rates are high, life expectancy is shorter.

15. Population Pyramids – Charts that show the percentages of each age group in the total population, divided by gender. For wealthier countries, the chart is shaped like a lopsided vase. Population is aging, TFRs are declining.

17. Population Distribution – Descriptions of locations on the Earth’s surface where individuals or groups (depending on the scale) live.

18. World Population Distribution and Density East Asia - ¼ of world population here South Asia - bound by the Himalayas and a desert in Pakistan Europe - population is concentrated in cities North America - megalopolis

19. East Asia Population

20. 100 million people dwell in China’s fertile Sichuan Basin Jiangsu, an area smaller than Ohio, is home to more than 70 million people

21. Government Population Policies Expansive Population Policies - Encourages population growth. Eugenic Population Policies - Favors one racial or cultural sector over others. Restrictive Population Policies - range from toleration of unapproved birth control to outright prohibition of large families. Make sure you are familiar with examples: past & present of each

22. China’s Family Planning: One Child Policy

23. China What does China’s sex - age pyramid look like? What stage is it in the Demographic transition model? Stage 1: Low Growth Stage 2: High Growth Stage 3: Moderate Growth Stage 4: Low Growth or Stationary

25. Data from: Population Reference Bureau, 2010.

26. Population Growth in India Significant demographic variations occur within countries. –In India, growth rates are higher in the east and northeast.

27. South Asian Population

28. South Asia is one of the least urbanized regions of the world Majority reside in compact rural villages and small towns Rural-to-urban migration as a result of agricultural changes

29. Family Planning India Since the 1950s the TFR has dropped but not enough TFRS vary widely within the country Strong correlation between women’s education and family planning 27% of India’s married women are sterilized Cultural preference for male children

30. India What does India’s sex - age pyramid look like? What stage is it in the Demographic transition model? Stage 1: Low Growth Stage 2: High Growth Stage 3: Moderate Growth Stage 4: Low Growth or Stationary

31. India

32. Two Ways of Population Density: Arithmetic Density – measure of total population relative to land size

33. Physiologic Density Luxor, Egypt Egypt’s arable lands are along the Nile River Valley. Moving away from the river a few blocks, the land becomes sandy and wind-sculpted.

34. World Population Density Which type of density does this map display?

37. Has one of the highest settlement densities in the world –TFR has been nearly cut in half between 1975 and the late 1990s –50% of Bangladesh women use oral contraception –Strong government support for family planning Bangladesh

43. Age Structure of a Population The populations of many countries are aging. - eg. Europe - eg. Japan Photo credit: H.J. de Blij Bordeaux, France

46. Japan

47. Europe Population 523 million

49. Italy What does Italy’s sex - age pyramid look like? What stage is it in the Demographic transition model? Stage 1: Stage 2: Stage 3: Stage 4:

51. North America Modern Spatial & Demographic Patterns Metropolitan clusters create uneven settlement landscapes Megalopolis: largest settlement agglomeration in the U.S. (Ex: Bosnywash) Population growth has increased in North America –Projected to increase to 375 million by the end of the 21 st century

52. Metro Area Population

54. Longer Life Expectancies typically mean higher rates of chronic diseases in MDC’s.

56. United States What does the United States sex - age pyramid look like? What stage is it in the Demographic transition model? Stage 1: Stage 2: Stage 3: Stage 4:

57. United States: 1950 - 2050

59. Examples of country’s/DTMstages: 1= none: some have barely made it out of stage 1 2= Egypt, Kenya, Afghanistan, India 3= China & Brazil (US is almost 4) 4= Japan, France, UK 5= Russia, Germany & future of JP

61. In poorer countries, Infant Mortality Rates are usually high, which is reflected in the pyramid shape.

62. In poorer countries, Life Expectancy is usually shorter, which is also reflected in the pyramid shape.

63. Population Density in Sub-Saharan Africa

64. Coping with AIDS in Their Midst

65. AIDS is leaving large numbers of AIDS orphans.

66. HIV/AIDS in Sub-Saharan Africa

68. Uganda What does Uganda’s sex - age pyramid look like? What stage is it in the Demographic transition model? Stage 1: Stage 2: Stage 3: Stage 4:

69. Uganda

70. Subsaharan Africa: Population Trends –Family size Preference for large families –Influenced by cultural practices, rural lifestyles, economics –Southern Africa is ground zero for the AIDS epidemic –2/3 of world’s AIDS cases are found in Sub-Saharan Africa –Drugs too expensive, so education is best way to stem epidemic Patterns of Settlement and Land Use –Widely scattered population – low density –Nigeria is the region’s most populated country (127 million)
