Description Usage Format Source

Description

A list containing population counts in 1960 and fertility rates, survival proportions, migration proportions, and sex ratios at birth at five year intervals between 1960 and 1995 (inclusive). Population counts, fertility rates, and survival and migration proportions are by five-year age group.

Format

A list with five elements of various types:

thai_base_pop_counts

A list with components named “male” and “female” containing 17*1 matrices of age-sex-specific population counts by five-year age group in 1960.

thai_fert_rates

A 17*8 matrix containing annual age-specific annual fertility rates. These can be interpreted as the average annual age-specific fertility rates which prevailed in the five-year intervals [1960, 1965), [1965, 1970), ..., [1995, 2000).

thai_mig_props

list with components named “male” and “female” containing 17*8 matrices of age-sex-specific annual migration proportions. These indicate the average annual net number of international migrants as a proportion of the population of Thailand in the five-year intervals [1960, 1965), [1965, 1970), ..., [1995, 2000).

thai_surv_props

list with components named “male” and “female” containing 18*8 matrices of age-sex-specific 5-year survival proportions. Rows 1–17 indicate the proportion of those aged [a, a+5) at year t that survive to be aged [a+5, a+10) at year t+5. The 18th row of these matrices is sex-specific survival in the open age interval, that is proportion of those aged w+ at year t that survive five more years.

thai_srb

A 1*8 matrix containing sex ratios at birth prevailaing over the five-year intervals [1960, 1965), [1965, 1970), ..., [1995, 2000).
