Abstract

Resource Image We offer artificial (toy) and historical data on limited growth population situations in the study of protozoa and lead students through several approaches to estimating parameters and determining the validity of the logistic model in these situations.

Description

We offer modeling opportunities in which (1) an artificial data set is given and a model is required and (2) several data sets from an historical protozoan study in the Soviet Union in the 1930's form the basis of the modeling and data. Several different approaches for estimating parameters are offered and the results from these approaches will be compared with each other as well as against the data itself.
