Demographic Bottlenecks

Demographic Bottlenecks is a population-level phenomenon in evolutionary biology and conservation science characterized by a sharp, temporary reduction in population size that severely limits genetic diversity and increases the effects of genetic drift, thereby altering the demographic and genetic trajectory of the surviving population.
