16、althusian Model 1.2 Nonlinear Models 1.3 Analyzing Nonlinear Models 1.4 Variations on the Logistic Model 1.5 Comments on Discrete and Continuous Models The Malthusian Model Focus on: Modeling the way populations grow or decline over time Questions to drive mathematical models: Why do populations sometimes grow and sometimes decline? Must populations grow to such a point that they are unsustainably large and then die out? If not, must a population reach some equilibrium? If an equilibrium exists,
