| Abstract: | The spatial dynamics and structural changes in population growth in South Australia between 1961 and 1971 are investigated using a model developed by PARIS (1970). The derived components are cross-matched with rates of natural increase, migration and levels of regional development. The observed relationships are interpreted as effects of differential regional development acting as a field of forces to distort even population distribution. The approach is deemed suitable for estimating regional population in regard to economic potential. |
