In this paper, Lotka's intrinsic rate of current population growth is evaluated. A new method of computing the net reproduction rate and a new rate of population growth are proposed. The proposed rate is the rate of growth of the female population per woman per year. The rate is positive, equal to zero, or negative as a population is increasing, remaining stationary, or decreasing. The rate for the 1987 U.S. white female population was R = -0.0037. This means that the white population was decreasing in 1987 and was losing 3.7 females for every 1000 women per year.
本文评估了洛特卡当前人口增长的内在速率。提出了一种计算净繁殖率和新的人口增长率的新方法。所提出的增长率是每年每位女性的女性人口增长率。当人口增加、保持稳定或减少时,该增长率为正、等于零或为负。1987年美国白人女性人口的增长率为R = -0.0037。这意味着1987年白人人口在减少,每年每1000名女性中就有3.7名女性减少。
