Integration of Population Resources Environment and Development
Author: United Nations. Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Asia
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
Socioeconomic development, the ultimate goal of which is a better quality of life, depends on many factors, including population, resources and environment. The relationship between population, resources, environment and development is complex and its many facets often interact amplifying each other. UN definitions of these 4 terms are used in this paper. Integration refers to the bringing together of specialized and differential units or activities into a single or more coordinated whole set of activities; it implies interdependence and interactivity of population and development programs. Despite the great contribution of the international conferences of the 1970s, integration has been a slow process in the ESCAP region. The present situation is not encouraging--great majority of countries consider current population growth rates a serious challenge to their socioeconomic development. Major problems are poverty and shortage of resources. The very low domestic food supply is causing a considerable proportion of the population to be underfed. Lack of sufficient energy resources, especially petroleum, and the increasing prices in the world market pose a serious threat. Under development is itself an environmental problem. The most common problem of population units or higher level committees attempts for integration is the lack of adequately trained manpower, particularly in demographic analysis and development planning. In some countries, however, no deliberate attempts to make use of available trained manpower have been effected. The structure of the units lacks the necessary power to influence overall planning. The authority over the budgetary provisions of other ministeries is unsatisfactory. Available knowledge on population development interrelationships is not consistent and does not significantly contribute to integrated development planning. Qualitative data and good research are essential. Although development plans and policies give the impression that population, resources, environment and development are successfully integrated, operationally, this is not so. Adequately trained manpower and carefully designed research are crucial to development planning.

Integrated Population Models
Author: Michael Schaub
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0128209151
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 640
Book Description
Integrated Population Models: Theory and Ecological Applications with R and JAGS is the first book on integrated population models, which constitute a powerful framework for combining multiple data sets from the population and the individual levels to estimate demographic parameters, and population size and trends. These models identify drivers of population dynamics and forecast the composition and trajectory of a population. Written by two population ecologists with expertise on integrated population modeling, this book provides a comprehensive synthesis of the relevant theory of integrated population models with an extensive overview of practical applications, using Bayesian methods by means of case studies. The book contains fully-documented, complete code for fitting all models in the free software, R and JAGS. It also includes all required code for pre- and post-model-fitting analysis. Integrated Population Models is an invaluable reference for researchers and practitioners involved in population analysis, and for graduate-level students in ecology, conservation biology, wildlife management, and related fields. The text is ideal for self-study and advanced graduate-level courses. - Offers practical and accessible ecological applications of IPMs (integrated population models) - Provides full documentation of analyzed code in the Bayesian framework - Written and structured for an easy approach to the subject, especially for non-statisticians
