Spatial and temporal autocorrelations affect Taylor's law for US county populations: Descriptive and predictive models.
Understanding the spatial and temporal distributions and fluctuations of living populations is a central goal in ecology and demography. A scaling pattern called Taylor's law has been used to quantify the distributions of populations. Taylor's law asserts a linear relationship between the...
