Thank you so much for doing ecology. I feel that in school, unless you're really a hardcore biology major, they tend to focus on microbiology (which can be a lot of memorization and regurgitation as opposed to excitedly learning about life). Ecology is much more brain-friendly and allows us to think over not only the world, but our place in it.

Population Ecology: The Texas Mosquito Mystery - Crash Course Ecology #2 NOTES 1: What is Ecology? 1.1: Ecology zooms out on the Earth as opposed to individual bodies 1.2: Population ecology is the study of how groups within a species live within an area 1.3: Community ecology is the study of how different species live in an area 1.4: Ecosystem ecology is the study of how all things coexist within an ecosystem 2: Intro to Population Ecology 2.1: Focusing on the 2012 West Nile Virus outbreak in Dallas, there was more than a tenfold increase in cases of West Nile Virus between 2011 and 2012 2.1.1: This was the result of a population explosion of mosquitoes, carriers of West Nile Virus, in 2011 2.2: Population ecology explains the specifics of the outbreak, such as why it happened at that time and place 3: Fundamentals of Population Ecology 3.1: A population is a group of one species who interact regularly 3.2: Population density, or the size of the population in a given space, affects how often individuals come in contact with each other 3.3: Population density increases when individuals are born or immigrate to the area and decreases due to deaths and emigrations out of the region 3.4: Additionally, the dispersion of these individuals as it’s important to know how close they actually are as opposed to an average which assumes they are equally spaced out 3.5: Fecundity, or the number of offspring an individual can have in a lifetime, make a huge difference in population growth 3.5.1: Mosquitoes can have thousands of offspring in two weeks while other animals have them less common 4: Limiting Factors of Population Growth 4.1: Population can’t grow infinitely, and rarely even reaches a full potential 4.2: Limiting factors are deduced by finding what a species needs to survive and determining whether or not it exists in sufficient quantities for growth 4.3: In Dallas, there are a lot of options for mosquito food, and it is extremely warm, especially during a heatwave in the summer of 2012 and a relatively warm 2011-2012 winter 4.3.1: Additionally, mating options were plentiful and a drought allowed mosquitoes to lay eggs in static water 5: Density Dependent and Independent Factors 5.1: Dependent and Independent Factors affect a species’ carrying capacity, the number of individuals a habitat can sustain with its’ available resources 5.2: Density Dependent Factors are determined by a population’s density 5.2.1: A population may not have enough food, water, and space to accommodate everyone, or a predator population explodes, keeping the prey population in check 5.2.2: Population density also affects damage done by disease as a population living in close quarters is more likely to spread the disease 5.3: Density Independent Factors are unaffected by population density 5.3.1: Natural or man-made disasters can devastate populations regardless of size 5.3.2: Even minor weather events like an above-average number of thunderstorms or a slightly cooler winter may also damage a population if eggs are disturbed 5.4: There are so many different factors that could lead to a population reaching carrying capacity 6: Calculating Growth 6.1: Exponential growth is common in ecological situations as species grow by multiplication 6.1.1: It’s important to note that, while population increases rapidly, something will cause growth to stop and possibly reverse 6.2: Logistic growth occurs when a population grows when constrained by its habitat 6.2.1: Logistic growth often shows a population growing exponentially until reaching carrying capacity, then plateauing 6.3: To calculate growth, first subtract the number of deaths from the number of births (if there are more deaths than births, this will be negative). Then, divide this value by the initial size of the population 6.4: While this number may appear large, note the exponential nature of the growth

I personally actually got a record low of mosquito bites this summer (0). But these reports however were rather worrisome. Every time I got some random bump and a sniffle I thought "Oh god! West Nile strikes again!" Luckily, being a nerd, I stayed inside and therefor safe.

The fun thing with exponential curves is that they don't usually come with tops. Unless you factor in all the deaths by starvation, then you get an asymptote (bit where the curve stops going up) as human death by starvation matches population growth, and we reach our carrying capacity.
