As the world’s population grows, contact between humans and wildlife will increase in more than half of Earth’s land areas. A new study shows where the largest changes will occur.

The next map shows the human capital density of U.S. metros compared to what their population density would predict, based on a residual analysis.

It shows where human populations are concentrated, with half of the world's population in the yellow areas and the other half dispersed throughout the black.

Another interesting population density map overlay was created and posted at the GEC by Gerardo64 two years ago. Both of these maps are excellent ways to get a better understanding of how humans ...

Population density data has been visualized in a million and one ways, but the best interpretations are those that force you to look at things differently. And those new insights might be closer ...

The results showed a positive relationship between survival rate and human population density – at low human densities, coyote survival was generally low.

Data from the World Population Review has revealed which countries have the highest population density.

The results showed a positive relationship between survival rate and human population density—at low human densities, coyote survival was generally low.

Dr Rae’s maps help break down population density, where each spike on the largest global map represents two square kilometres while on subsequent maps, each spike represents 1 square kilometre.

Our research suggests that as human population increases, humans and animals will share increasingly crowded landscapes. For example, as more people move into forests and agricultural regions ...
