It highlights the significance of groundwater as a key reservoir for freshwater, vital for biodiversity and human use. The text addresses human impacts, such as extraction and land use changes, leading to increased runoff and pollution.

Note that in the former, the effect of the factor on the population depends on the density of the population at onset.

Population ecologists are often tasked with determining if populations are increasing, stable, or declining. More complex patterns are also possible, such as rebounds after sharp declines or regular cycles. To understand what determines what a population does over time ecologists think about processes of population regulation -
