We consider here a long time scale diffusion limit for the dynamics of a large purely age structured population with closely matched birth an death rates. To this end we work out the technical details necessary to apply the general results in Méléard and Tran to this particular case. This way we derive, starting from a logistic age-structured birth and death process, a Feller diffusion with drift and diffusion coefficients that are averages over the age distribution.Lire moins >
