Bottleneck events are not always caused by the death of most of a species population. Bottleneck events can be caused by man hunting a species too much, habitat destruction, or an environmental disaster.
Population implosion refers to a rapid and drastic decline in the population of a region or a country. This can be caused by factors such as low birth rates, high death rates, and emigration. Population implosions can have significant social and economic consequences, such as labor shortages and declining economic growth.
Around 20% of the American population is estimated to have dimples. Dimples are caused by a genetic trait that causes certain muscles to be shorter than usual, creating a visible indentation when a person smiles.

One piece of evidence that led Wegener to propose the theory of continental drift was the observation that the coastlines of Africa and South America appeared to fit together like puzzle pieces. This suggested that the continents were once joined together and had subsequently drifted apart.
Thomas Malthus believed that eventually, the population of the world would outgrow the amount of resources (food) we would have. Therefore we would run out of food. He developed the theory; population grows geometrically (1,2,4,8,16,32...) and resources grow arithmetically (1,2,3,4,5,6,7...). This caused him to believe that someday, we would have to many people for the amount of resources we have. To fix this, he wanted to put certain laws into place. One of which was an IQ test, because the poor people were the ones reproducing all the time (because they had nothing else to do!). If you did not achieve a certain score (or higher) on this test, you would be sterilized and therefore couldn't have children. This never happened of course, because of the industrial revolution... when we were able to produce more from resources. There were also several other factors contributing to why this didn't happen.
That was the theory of Thomas Robert Malthus (1766-1834), the English Cleric, author of the Essay on the Principle of Population and originator of the perception of economics as "the dismal science". Malthus reasoned that human population tends to grow at a geometrical rate, while our ability to prooduce subsistence increases at a merely arithmetical rate -- and so we find ourselves in an ever-deepening spiral of suffering caused by overpopulation. In Malthus's view this process could only be slowed by the "preventive check" of decreased fertility, or the "positive check" of increased mortality.
The angular distance of the horizon below the plane of observation caused by the curvature of the Earth's surface is called the dip angle.
What caused the slave population in the Chesapeake colonies to grow?
The Scientific Method: observation, hypothesis, experiment, verification, peer review.
The statement "the damage at this scene was caused by an explosion" is an inference rather than an observation. An observation is a direct, factual statement based on sensory data, while an inference involves interpreting or drawing a conclusion based on observations. In this case, the statement goes beyond direct sensory data to make a conclusion about the cause of the damage, making it an inference.
The high production of new technology and the rising popularity of huge cities caused the population boom.
<Novanet> observation, inference!

This is caused by refraction. A variation in air density corresponds to variation in refractive index of the air, locally near the road.
Yes it is. More the population, more is the pollution.
