You are an ecologist studying movement behavior of a bird population. You attach radio-transmitters to each member of several different populations of the bird, allowing you to measure precisely how many birds emigrate from each of the populations each year. You gather the following data: Bird population size Total number of birds emigrating per year 712 163 27 244 68 71 20 642 186 12 389 93 Does emigration represent a density-dependent process in this population? Explain your answer briefly.
