title: Spatio-temporal variations in population growth in India since 1901.
abstract: "On the basis of census data we analyse population growth since 1901 first for India as a whole, secondly on State level. The spatio-temporal patterns suggest a process of innovation and diffusion with regard to the spatial change of natural increase. The southern States cover more stages of the model of demographic transition than the northern States. Explanations about these spatial differentials come for example [from] sociocultural differences between north and south determining two demographic regions according to Satpura Range."
