Mathematically, it is described by dN/dt = rN, where r is the intrinsic growth rate and N is the population size. The solution, N(t) = N₀e^(rt), is the simplest dynamical model in ecology, epidemiology, and finance — and the most dangerous, because it has no internal brake. In population biology, exponential growth is accurate on...
