In geometric populations, R and ? represent growth constants ( see intrinsic rate of increase ( r ) is the relevant growth constant.
2.
This species, unlike softer shelled intrinsic rate of increase ( this means that populations grow very slowly ), along with " Leptoxis carinata ", in this environment.
3.
This species, unlike softer shelled intrinsic rate of increase ( this means that populations grow very slowly ), along with " Elimia virginica ", in this environment.
4.
The second argument is that the maximum rate at which a population with a stable age distribution increases in a given environment ( rm = intrinsic rate of increase ) can be calculated with the correct data.
5.
Each resource type exhibits logistic growth with intrinsic rate of increase, " r R l ", and carrying capacity, " K R l = 1 / ? R l ", such that growth rate of resource " l " is
