Metabolic Theory of Ecology
• An empirical unified formula:
• Other allometric scaling with
body size
• T~M1/4
• f~M-1/4
• Some important constants
• The number of heart beat per
life time ~1.5*109

Macroeconomic regularities
• Some allometric scaling
relations:
• Population and export
• X~P3/4
• Grouping countries by GDP
Per Capita

Allometric Scaling of Countries
![Page 9: Allometric Scaling of Countriesswarmagents.cn.13442.m8849.cn/jake/slides/allometric... · 2011. 3. 7. · GDP GovernmentConsumption Eco-Eco 0.955073 0.954618 GDP GovernmentDebt Eco-Eco](https://reader035.fdocument.pub/reader035/viewer/2022081403/60b158d9a6ad4820a902abe2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Motivations
• Is the allometric scaling a
universal pattern for complex
systems
• Are there some patterns behind
the macro-economic variables?
• Are there regularities in growth
of nations?

CountryData can get the
information of countries
• The data are from:

Intelligence Agency. "NGA GEOnet Names
Server (GNS)." 2007
• University of California at Berkeley. "GADM:

Tables." 2006. »
• van der Heyden, J. "GeoHive: Global
Statistics." 2008
• World Health Organization. "WHO Mortality
Database: Tables." 2007
• …
• Totally 237 countries as the
sample sets

Properties
• Totally 128 numeric properties of
each country are considered
• We classified these properties
into 8 categories

Pre-processing
• Select one of the important
properties in each group as the
x-variable, and any property as
the y-variable
• Regression under the log-log
coordinate
• Only the regressions with
R^2>0.75 are selected to be
shown

Dynamic patterns
• CountryData command may also
provide some properties of
countries in each year through
1971~2006
• Population, GDP, ImportValue are
mainly studied.
• We mainly observe the allometric
scaling exponent and R^2
change with time and their
distributions

Conclusions
• Allometric Scaling is a universal
relationship between macro-
variables although the exponents
may be variant.
• Area, Population and GDP are
important variables as geometric,
demographic, and economic size
of nations.
• GDP exhibits scale-inefficient as
the per-capita income increases
• The growth of GDP and
Population show multiple power
law regularities in time.
