13. World Population Density ** Exception to sparsely populated regions occurs in South America!!

14. World Population Distribution and Density East Asia - 1/5 of world population here - China South Asia - bound by the Himalayas and a desert in Pakistan - another 1/5 of the worlds population Europe - population is concentrated in cities - 1/9 th world population Southeast Asia - 4 th most populated region in the world – ½ billion people – Indonesia most populated country in the region ** 2/3 rd of world’s population is clustered into these 4 regions! North America - megalopolis  AKA metropolitan area

20. Many Ways of Measuring Population: Population Density – measure of total population divided by the total land size (AKA. arithmetic population density).

21. The highest arithmetic densities are found in parts of Asia and Europe.

22. Physiological Density Physiological density is the number of people per arable land area. This is a good measure of the relationship between population and agricultural resources in a society.

23. Physiological Density WHICH IS LOW PHYSIOLOGICAL DENSITY; MIDDLE, & HIGH?

24. AGRICULTURAL DENSITY -Ratio of the # of farmers to the amount of arable land

26. Crude Birth Rate (CBR) Crude Death Rate (CDR) Crude Birth Rate (CBR) is the total number of live births in a year for every 1,000 people alive in the society Crude Death Rate (CDR) is the total number of deaths in a year for every 1,000 people ** Crude focuses on society as a whole rather than a refined look at particular individual and groups

27. Crude Birth Rates Fig. 2-8: The lowest rates are in Europe, and the highest rates are in Africa and several Asian countries.  Why?

28. Crude Death Rates Fig. 2-12 Because wealthy countries are in a late stage of the Demographic Transition, they often have a higher CDR than poorer countries.

29. Natural Increase Rate (NIR) is the percentage by which a population grows/declines in a year NIR = CBR – CDR Represents country’s growth rate excluding migration NIR is lower today (1.2) than in the past – Peak in 1963 of 2.2 Natural Increase Rates

30. Doubling Time The number of years needed to double a population assuming a constant rate. NIR today (1.2) = a doubling time of 54 years 1963 NIR was 2.2 = a doubling time of 35 years

31. Natural Increase Rates

32. Total Fertility Rate (TFR) is the average number of children a woman will have throughout her childbearing years – Roughly 15-49 – Used to measure number of births in a society TFR varies between MDCs and LDCs Total Fertility Rate

36. Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) is the annual number of deaths of infants under 1 year of age, compared with total live births – Number of deaths per 1,000 births – Highest rates in poorer countries of sub-Saharan Africa – Lowest Rates in Western Europe IMR reflects country’s health-care system – Lower IMRs in countries with well-trained doctors and nurses, modern hospitals, and supplies of medicine Infant Mortality rate
