ABSTRACT
A modelling strategy for the dynamics of a single species of a structured population is proposed. It is based on a stochastic model describing the life history of an individual. The life history of an individual is assumed completely determined by the biological processes of development, reproduction and mortality. The dynamics of the overall population is obtained by the time evolution of the life histories of its individuals. An application to the dynamics of a species of copepods, in different environments, is presented.
