title: Forcing anomalous scaling on demographic fluctuations.
abstract: We discuss the conditions under which a population of anomalously diffusing individuals can be characterized by demographic fluctuations that are anomalously scaling themselves. Two examples are provided in the case of individuals migrating by Gaussian diffusion, and by a sequence of Lévy flights.
