An alternative delayed population growth difference equation model

We propose an alternative delayed population growth difference equation model based on a modification of the Beverton–Holt recurrence, assuming a delay only in the growth contribution that takes into account that those individuals that die during the delay, do not contribute to growth. The model introduced differs from a delayed logistic difference equation, known as the delayed Pielou or delayed Beverton–Holt model, that was formulated as a …
