Changing demographic rates

Approach

We can calculate trends in demographic rates (survival, fecundity) for this dataset, using a framework similar to that described in the PFMC Working Group reports.

Survival

Figure 1. Estimated survival rates for 20-year old males and females in the SRKW population. Ribbons represent 95% CIs.

Fecundity

Figure 2. Estimated fecundity rates for 20-year females in the SRKW population. Ribbons represent 95% CIs.
