Using tools developed in the Markov chains literature, we study convergence times in the Leslie population model in the short and middle run. Assuming that the population is in a steady-state and reproduces itself period after period, we address the following question: how long will it take to get back to the steady-state if the population distribution vector was affected by some shock as, for instance, the “brain drain”? We provide lower and upper bounds for the time required to reach a given distance from the steady-state.

The steady-state relative population sizes of the several cell populations in Hydra attenuata were examined. In contrast to the constant average population size ratios between groups of animals, these ratios vary within limits between individual animals within a group. By maintaining animals on different feeding regimes (number of shrimp larvae ingested per day), the steady-state population size ratios were altered. The kinds of changes that occurred in these ratios suggest where controls may be operating to maintain the steady-state population sizes.
