Abstract

Population viability analyses have developed concepts relating largely to genetic threats, although environmental and demographic factors may be of greater immediate concern. Using twenty-eight published empirically derived projection matrices of various perennial herbs and trees, I model the behavior of plant populations by introducing temporal variation in demographic parameters into matrix projections of stage-structured populations. Stochastic modeling of population behavior allows estimation of extinction probabilities and minimum viable population.
