Definition of doubling time
DOUBLING TIME: The time it takes for a particular level of population to double in size: A fairly accurate doubling time estimate can be computed by taking the annual growth rate and dividing it by 70: At 2% annual growth world population (5:5 billion in 1996) will double in size (to 11 billion) in about 35 years (2031) assuming the annual growth stays constant (see also EXPONENTIAL GROWTH)
