How to Use This Calculator
  1. Enter Initial Population (N0) and the Intrinsic Growth Rate (r) — use r from field estimates.
  2. Set the Time Period (years or generations).
  3. Enter Carrying Capacity (K) for logistic growth modeling (leave blank for exponential).
  4. Review Final Population, Population Change, and Percent Change.
  5. Check Doubling Time and Time to K/2 to understand growth trajectory and density-dependent limits.
