敏感性和弹性分析的历史生命表，瑞典女性从1751-1755年和1966-1970年，即在小冰河时期和之后。再加上生活史理论，这种方法为我们提供了一些关于身高如何被理解为子宫内生长条件的代表的想法，如果我们渴望校准拟议的气候扰动及其对过去社会的影响，这一点很重要。矩阵种群模型是一种多功能的工具，已被广泛用于保护生物学，生态学，灵长类动物学和进化人口学。到目前为止，生物考古学/人类骨骼学的应用仅限于人口预测。下面介绍矩阵种群模型，并讨论它们在生物考古学中的应用。版权所有（C）2010约翰威利父子有限公司
A sensitivity and elasticity analysis is performed on historical life-tables, that of Swedish females from 1751-1755 and 1966-1970, i.e. during and after the Little Ice Age. Coupled with life-history theory, this approach supplies us with some ideas on how stature can be understood as a proxy for conditions during the intrauterine growth, important if we aspire to calibrate proposed climatic perturbations and their effect on past societies. Matrix population models represent a versatile tool that has been used extensively in conservation biology, ecology, primatology and evolutionary demography. As of yet, applications in bioarchaeology/human osteology have been restricted to population forecasting. The following paper introduces matrix population models and discusses their use in bioarchaeology. Copyright (C) 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
