In ecology, a population consists of all the organisms of a particular species living in a given area. For instance, we could say that a population of humans lives in New York City, and that another population of humans lives in Gross.
In the herbivore population example, an increase in density (of adults, for instance) causes a change in another demographic process (growth of the smaller animals, for instance). This is the result of competition, by consumption of food by the adults, so that there is less available for the others.
