1-170-CensusModeling-ModelingScenario
Students who have studied models for population are likely to be familiar with the exponential and the logistic population models. The goal here is to explore the role of modeling assumptions in choosing which model to use.

2022-Kalman-Improved Approaches Discrete Continuous Logistic Equation

2009-Brian_Winkel-Modelling_Growth_Of_an_OilSlick
An oil-slick spreads at sea. From time to time, but irregularly, a helicopter is dispatched. On each trip, it arrives over the slick, the pilot takes a picture, waits 10 minutes, takes another, and heads home. Model this.
