What are the demographic transition model (DTM) stages and who created it?

Stage 1: *Low growth \n High but fluctuating CDR and CBR. Low NIR. Population composition is youth dependency

Stage 2: *high growth \n CBR remains high. CDR plummets due to improved nutrient, sanitation, and medication. NIR rapidly grows. Population composition on youth. \n *MDS enters industrial revolution and 150 yrs later LDCs enter Medical revolution \n

Stage 3: *moderate growth \ CBR falling, CDR falling slowly, NIR increase slows, population composition, mostly youth-people surviving longer \

Stage 4: * low growth \ CBR low, CDR low, NIR falls and stays at low growth, population composition, shifts to elderly \ *women education-less babies

possible stage 5: Zero population growth, population composition:eldery. Japan, Germany, Russia

Warren Thomposon

Who created the Epidemiological transition model? what re the stages?

stage 1: infectious diseases (cholera, tuberculosis), pandemics/epidemics, animal attacks and accidents, malnutrition

stage 2: receding pandemics due to medical advancements, etc. (industrial revolution)

stage 3: degenerative and human-made diseases (cancer, aging lifestyle choices, heart diseases)

stage 4: delayed degenerative diseases (medical advancements, Alzheimer’s)

Stage 5: reemergence of infectious diseases. (covid, ebola)

what is the Bid rent curve? who created it?

William Alonso

The price and demand for real estate changes (usually decrease) as the distance from the CBD increases, different users will compete for different parcels of limited land in order to maximize profits

what are the stages of the Zelinsky/mobility transition model

1. Premodeern traditional society (before the onset of large-scale urbanization, and there is very little migration) RNI=0

2. Early Transitional society (Massive movement from countryside to cities as a community experiences the process of modernization) RNI=high

3. Late Transtional soceity (urban→urban migration surpasses rural→urban migration) RNI=moderate

4. Advanced society (rural→ urban movement is further reduced and vigorous movement of migrants from city to city and within individual urban agglomeration occurs) RNI=sligt or near 0

5. Future advanced society (all migration may be interurban or intraurban) RNI=negative to 0
