When the model matrix varies from year to year….
Time-Varying Models: … in a known fashion over finite time window• Recorded sequence of bad and poor years• Relationship between demographic parameter and env. covariate• MAIN AIM: model a known trajectory (retrospective)
Random Environment: … in a random fashion over a finite or infinite time window• Projection of relationship between parameter and env. covariate • Unexplained year-to-year (environmental) variation• MAIN AIM: projection, asymptotic behavior (prospective)

Where is the paradox ?
n(t) = At n(t-1) n(t) = n(0) Ai
log n(t) - log n(0) = log Ai
Central Limit Theorem: log Ai Normal distribution
log n(t) - log n(0) Normal ( t , ²t)
a = E(log At ) , v = var(log At ) t = a t ²t = v t
![Page 15: Matrix Population Models for Wildlife Conservation and Management 27 February - 5 March 2016 Jean-Dominique LEBRETON Jim NICHOLS Madan OLI Jim HINES](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070611/5a4d1bbb7f8b9ab0599d0c9f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The paradox is still there
log n(t) - log n(0) Normal ( t , ²t)
t = a t , ²t = v t
(log n(t) - log n(0) )/t Normal (a , v/t)
1/t log n(t) Normal (a , v/t)
v/t 0 when t
1/t log n(t) log s = E (log At)
However 1/t log E(n(t)) log = log E(At)

A few trajectories with large growth rate keep
the expected growth rate equal to log = log E(At)
Most probable trajectories are concentrated
around log s = E ( log At ) (more and more when t )
There is no real paradox
log s is a relevant measure of growth rate
