The modellers' encounter with ecological theory. Or, what is this thing called `growth rate'?

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

The attempt to determine the population growth rate from field data reveals several ambiguities in its definition(s), which seem to throw into question the very concept itself. However, an alternative point of view is proposed that not only preserves the identity of the concept, but also helps discriminate between competing models for capturing the data.
