Sampling - counting the number of organisms in a small area and multiplying to estimate the number in a larger area

Mark & Recapture - capture an organism & release it to remix with population. Then recapture some more in that area to determine population size. Formula is as follows: R (marked recaptures) / C (total in second sample) = M (marked initially) / N (total pop. size)

Indirect Observation - estimating the population size by tracks, nest or other animal signs in an ecosystem.

Direct Observation - count all members of a population in an ecosystem

How increasing population can be utilized for Economic development?

The ways in which population densities fluctuate-increasing, decreasing, or both over time-is the subject of population dynamics. Population density measures the number of individuals per unit area, for example, the number of deer per square kilometer. Although this is straightforward in theory, determining population densities for many species can be challenging in practice.
