Rates of change from one period to the next are calculated as proportional changes from the earlier period.
The least-squares growth rate, r, is estimated by fitting a linear regression trend line to the logarithmic annual values of the variable in the relevant period.
The geometric growth rate is applicable to compound growth over discrete periods, such as the payment and reinvestment of interest or dividends.

Growth rates of a coastal species, juvenile morwong, in the 1990s were 28.5 per cent faster than at the beginning of the period under assessment in the mid-1950s.
Growth rates of the juveniles of the deep-water species all began decreasing well before the onset of commercial fishing.
