We start by reviewing several results that have been obtained by the author concerning a general model of population growth in a randomly varying environment of the form dN /dt = (g(N ) + σ (N )ε(t)) N , where N = N (t) is the population size at time t. In this general model we have assumed that the

Environmental threats, such as habitat size reduction or environmental pollution, may not cause immediate extinction of a population but shorten the expected time to extinction. We develop a method to estimate the mean time to extinction for a density-dependent population with environmental #uctuati
