Population dynamics must consider the number of individuals that are lost per unit of time, also called the mortality rate.
Mortality, or mortality, is a measure of the number of deaths (generally or due to a particular cause) in a particular population, scaled to the size of that population per unit of time.
The relative incidence of deaths in a particular population over a particular time period. Often expressed as the rate of human deaths or wildlife deaths from environmental hazards during a public health crisis. The highest mortality rate for patients over the age of 80 was during the last flu season.
