The population density is the average number of people who live in a measurable area, divided by the area of land that they occupy.

For example, the population density of Monaco (1.95 km2) is over 16000 people per square kilometer.

What is a density-dependent factor in controlling a population?

A density-dependent factor is one where the effect of the factor on the size of the population depends upon the original density or size of the population. A disease is a good example of a density-dependent factor. If a population is dense and the individuals live close together, then each individual will have a higher probability of catching the disease than if the individuals had been living farther apart. Not only will a greater number of individuals be affected, but, more importantly, a greater proportion of the population will be affected if they are living close together. For example, bird populations are often regulated more by this type of regulation.
