- Abstract
- Natural change represents the number of live births minus the number of deaths.
The natural change is associated with the inputs and outputs from the population stock due to natural causes (births and deaths). This factor is therefore influenced by the population structure, in particular by the percentage of elderly people on the total of the population.
This influence can be observed in the Alpine area, where lower values of natural change in areas characterised by a high total elderly population index can be observed. Areas characterised by decreasing values are mainly located throughout the Italian Alps, with remarkably low values on the western and eastern sides. A more fragmented framework is visible in other parts of France, Switzerland and Germany. Rather stable values can be observed in South-Western Austria. On the other hand, higher values can be found in a corridor from Liechtenstein to Central Austria, including South Tyrol in Italy and the Austrian Tyrol, where the total elderly population ageing index is lower. Similar trends are also visible in the French department of Haute-Savoie and the city of Grenoble and its surroundings. In Slovenia, the situation is complex, with higher rates of natural change near the city of Ljubljana and in the bottom valleys, and lower rates in the most remote areas.
