Source population. An actively breeding population that has an average birth rate that exceeds its average death rate, and thus produces an excess of animals that may disperse to other areas. Species management plan: Guidance document prepared by one or more participants which identifies detailed actions and activities for conservation of the Columbia spotted frog throughout its range, subject to Adaptive Management review by the Columbia Spotted Frog Technical Team (CSFTT). Species monitoring plan: Guidance document prepared by one or more participants which defines the structure, timing, protocols, and locations for short- and long-term population monitoring, subject to Adaptive Management review by the Columbia Spotted Frog Technical Team (CSFTT).
Source population. The State of Georgia provides the source population for this dissertation. Georgia population estimates and distributions of the exposures of interest are discussed below. These estimates are based on the data from the 2000 U.S. Census and from the later U.S. Census Current Population Surveys (CPS). Residential Segregation Beginning in the 1890s and ending with the Voting Rights Act of 1965, Georgia and other southern states issued legislation that mandated racial segregation of public facilities under what was termed Xxx Xxxx laws 145. Under Xxx Xxxx, blacks experienced discrimination in housing and employment that resulted in residential racial segregation. The Civil Rights Act of 1968 ended legal discrimination in housing sales and rentals. Although de jure segregation was outlawed in the 1960s, many Georgians still reside in racially segregated areas. A recent examination of the extent of racial segregation in U.S. cities showed that Georgia has cities ranking amongst the most and the least racially segregated 90. Employing the dissimilarity index, Atlanta, Georgia ranked fourth among U.S. cities with the highest dissimilarity indices, D=0.83, meaning that 83% of blacks must leave Atlanta in order to equalize the distribution of whites and blacks in Atlanta. Hinesville, Georgia ranked 12th among U.S. cities with the lowest dissimilarity indices, D=0.17. Levels of economic segregation in Georgia have not been assessed. Rural-Urban Residence According to the USDA Economic Research Service (ERS), the rural population of Georgia (defined by RUCA codes calculated from the 2000 U.S. Census) is two million, which accounts for 24.7% of the population of the state 146. In comparison, 20.5% of the U.S. population lives in rural areas. Eighteen percent of the Georgian rural population lives in households below the poverty line versus 14.8% of the U.S rural population. The percent of persons age 65 or greater (age of our Medicare study population) living in rural areas is 12.7% which is lower than the 14.8% estimate for the U.S. rural population, Racial Distribution The U.S. Census reports in 2008 that 30.0 % of Georgians are black and 65.4 % are white 147. In comparison blacks and whites constitute 12.8 % and 79.8 % of the U.S. population, respectively. Using data from the 2008 and 2009 U.S. Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey, the Xxxxxx Family Foundation reported that the poverty rate is 31.9 % among black Georgians and 11.5 % among white Georgians 148.

Source population. All blood donors’ sample which was previously screened and stored at NBBS laboratory.
Source population. An actively breeding population that has an average birth rate that exceeds its average death rate, and thus produces an excess of animals that may disperse to other areas. Subpopulation: A geographically distinct population segment (e.g., Jarbidge - Independence, Ruby, Toiyabe). Survey: Field assessment to determine an organism’s distribution in potential habitat. Threats: Ongoing or potential actions having negative or potential negative impacts to an organism or its habitat. Viable population: A population that maintains its reproductive vigor and its potential for evolutionary adaptation.
Source population. All currently married couples residing in Dukem town.
