This value is found in the denominator of the competitive Lotka-Volterra equations and in the differential form of an 1838 equation published by Pierre Verhulst.

Organisms that place greater energy investment in progeny and produce (*) fewer offspring often employ a strategy that reaches this value. This term is asymptotically reached by a sigmoid growth model, at which point the rate of population growth tends to zero. For 10 points, name this value, often denoted "k," that represents the maximum population an environment can indefinitely support.
