A warm-up model
The following is a simplified model of a loggerhead sea turtle population to help you get prepared for the loggerhead sea turtle project.
A simple loggerhead sea turtle population model is: \begin{align} \begin{bmatrix}J\\ A\end{bmatrix}_{t+1} = \begin{bmatrix}0.2&40\\0.01&0.4\end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix}J\\ A\end{bmatrix}_t \end{align} where $J$ is the number of juvenile (non-reproductive) sea turtles, $A$ is the number of adult (reproductive) sea turtles, and $t$ is the number of years that have passed.
