Construction and analysis of matrix population models
Construct and analyze projection matrix models from a demography study of marked individuals classified by age or stage. The package covers methods described in Matrix Population Models by Caswell (2001) and Quantitative Conservation Biology by Morris and Doak (2002).

popdemo provides a set of tools designed for modelling population demography
using population projection matrix (PPM) models.  The focus is mainly on indices
of transient dynamics, and the use of control theory (specifically transfer
functions).  However, popdemo includes a number of tools focussing on other
areas of demographic modelling.  Some tools may prove useful to anyone working
with projection matrix models of any type, or indeed matrices in general.
The package is designed to build on those tools already available in popbio.
