Spatio-Temporal patterns of sex ratio and its differentials in West Bengal Saha Chaitanyadev Senior Research Fellow (UGC), Department of Geography, Lady Brabourne College, Kolkata Online published on 20 June, 2019. Abstract Sex ratio is one of the basic demographic characteristics which depicts the status of women and measures the extent of prevailing equity between males and females in a society at a given point of time. It is a ratio of females to thousand males in India. It is mainly the outcome of the interplay of sex differentials in mortality, sex selective migration, sex ratio at birth and at times the sex differential in population enumeration. In this paper an attempt is made to understand the spatial-temporal patterns and its differentials as well as its impact on society in the state of West Bengal in India. This study is primarily based on secondary sources of data i.e. Census of India, Statistical Hand Book of West Bengal, Vital Statistics of India etc. Analysis and interpretation of patterns, differentials and impact of Sex Ratio have been done with the help of statistical, cartographic and GIS techniques. Top Keywords Sex Ratio, Patterns, Differentials, Determinants, West Bengal. Top | |
