Population Viability Analysis Introduction Over the last few lectures we’ve talked about the stochastic threats to persistence in small populations. We identified five classes of threats and some of their qualitative properties: 1. Genetic stochasticity — Not a problem in populations with Ne greater than a few hundred. Therefore‚ not likely to be a problem in populations large enough to buffer environmental stochasticity 2. Demographic stochasticity — Unlikely to be a problem in populations with
