    Population survival and extinction are analyzed using a differential equation model. Extinction depends on both density-dependent and density-independent factors, especially under temporal stress.

    Area of Science:

    • Ecology
    • Mathematical Biology
    • Population Dynamics

    Background:

    • Traditional extinction studies focus on infinite time horizons and zero population levels.
    • Population dynamics are influenced by density-dependent and time-varying density-independent factors.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To perform survival analyses for populations modeled by nonautonomous differential equations.
    • To extend extinction analysis to finite time horizons and nonzero abundance thresholds.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a nonautonomous differential equation model to represent population dynamics.
    • Investigated survival, extinction, and persistence under varying demographic parameters.

    Main Results:

    • Survival analysis was conducted for both traditional (infinite horizon, zero abundance) and extended (finite horizon, nonzero threshold) scenarios.

  • Demonstrated that extinction is influenced by a combination of density-dependent and density-independent factors.
  • Conclusions:

    • Extinction risk for temporally stressed populations is a complex interplay of various demographic factors.
    • The developed survival analysis framework offers a more comprehensive approach to understanding population persistence and extinction.
