Overview

India's sub-regional model has a total of 69 preprocessor series. Although there are 652 preprocessor series in the IFs model, there are many that are not applicable to sub-regional models or do not significantly impact forecasts. Therefore, only 355 preprocessor series are sought for sub-regionalization. Thus India's sub-regional model has nearly 19.4% coverage at this point. There are a 31 preprocessor series that have been identified that could be pulled into the model. If this data was to be pulled the the total coverage of the model would increase to nearly 28.2%.

IFs Module Series Pulled Total Series Pulled Coverage
Population 8 8 100%
Economy 24 55 43.6%
Agriculture 8 36 22.2%
Education 17 91 18.7%
Energy 4 66 6.1%
Socio-Political 3 12 25%
Infrastructure 0 21 0%
Environment 0 9 0%
Health 5 57 8.8%
Total 69 355 19.4%
Potential Coverage 100 355 28.2%

The population module is completely covered, however there are some problems with migration which are detailed in the population section. The economy module has the second highest module coverage in the India sub-national module with almost 44% coverage. Infrastructure, Environment, Energy, and Health are areas of relative weakness in the model. Of the potential preprocessor series, most are in the infrastructure and agricultural modules. Therefore, infrastructure's coverage could be improved significantly. 

Population Module

IFs population module may have some problems in sub-regional migration, that require further research in the future. Migration is an exogenous variable based upon UNPD forecasts of net migration rates in the model. In the case of sub-regional models it is difficult to find sub-regional forecasts of migration. IIASA was generous enough to grant the Pardee Center access to their preliminary migration forecasts for the states and union territories of India, which has resolved the issue of access to reliable forecasts. Additionally, there is two errors that occur when the model is broken out with sub-regional migration forecast data. The first is this: 

MigrantStocks.png

Followed by this error: 

PopForeign.png

In IFsHistSeries.mdb the ForecastNetMigrationUNPD table and the ForecastNetMigrationRateUNPD table are filled with zeroes where the data should be nulls for all sub-regions. This may be part of the cause of the error. The error may be caused by the logic for migration, where foreign population is a function of migration. There may be some limitations to the amount of intranational migration based upon the aggregated foreign population for a given country. This is only conjecture and requires further analysis in the future. 

Due to the errors that occur when the model is broken out with subnational migration data, migration forecasts are not included in the model's breakout. This leaves population forecasts unimpacted by migration and all provincial migration rates are zero in the base case. A scenario is used to calibrate IFs' population forecasts in India to introduce migration to the model without causing model error. 


Model Vetting Using IIASA's India Model

India's subnational population was rigorously vetted and one of the tools available was subnational population forecasts that were developed by IIASA. These forecasts were compared with each state and territory in India, as were the components of these forecasts. The components include births, deaths, and migration. Below is a state-by-state comparison of the IFs base case (without migration) with IIASA's forecasts for population, births, deaths, and migration. 

This comparison is followed by graphs that document population model calibration. First migration rates and then population for each state after scenarios using the migrater parameter in IFs. There are two scenarios for the subnational population in India. The first scenario has migration rates for all provinces that are directly from IIASA. The second scenario is an adjustment of the first scenario where each province's migration rates from IIASA are excluded, included, doubled, or halved. These decisions for this scenario are based upon how the population forecasts looked after the first migration scenario. The third scenario is a slightly adjusted version of the second scenario that was run with the final China migration scenario.

Two states are missing from this analysis, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. These states were not included because IIASA's forecasts only have Andhra Pradesh, which includes Telangana. Whereas, the IFs model has Andhra Pradesh and Telangana separated. 

India

Population

Below is a graph of the population sum of the states and terrritories for IIASA, IFs without migration, and the three IFs migration scenarios. These are all compared to the 186 version of IFs. As shown below, IFs without migration and IFs migration scenario 1 are significantly higher than the other population models. IIASA's subnational model's population summed is almost identical to IFs' 186 model. Migration scenario 2 is in between the two models. The third and final migration scenario is the closest to IIASA and the 186 version of IFs. The third migration scenario has about 19 million more people than the 186 version of IFs in 2100, where as the second scenario has about 78 million more people and the first migration scenario has about 172 million more people.

Andaman and Nicobar Islands

Population

In 2010 the IFs model's population is about 2% greater than IIASA's, but in 2015 Andaman and Nicobar Islands's population drops below IIASA's by about 9%. The IFs model's population forecasts are less than IIASA's by an increasing rate and by 2095 IFs's population forecast is by about 94%. 

AndamanandNicobarIsPopIIASA.png

Crude Birth Rates

Andaman and Nicobar Island's Crude Birth Rates in IFs are close to IIASA's forecasts. In 2075 and 2080 IFs is less than IIASA by about 10%, but all other years the two models are less than 10% in difference. 

AndamanandNicobarCBRIIASA.png

Crude Death Rates

The IFs model's CDRs are significantly greater than IIASA's forecasts. In 2015 the IFs model's CDRs are about 9% greater than IIASA's and by 2095 the difference grows to around 23%. 

AndamanandNicobarCDRIIASA.png

Migration

The net migration rate from IIASA in Andaman and Nicobar Islands starts out high in 2010 at about 8.5 per thousand and steadily declines to just below 3 per thousand by 2095. 

AndamanandNicobarMigIIASA.png

Migration Scenario 2 Results

Although there is some visible difference between the IIASA and IFs model with the first scenario, the difference is very small is absolute terms. The population in Andaman and Nicobar Islands is small and the difference is minimal. 

Migration After Scenario 2

The second migration scenario is almost identical to the first scenario. In the first few years of forecast, Andaman and Nicobar Islands are identical to IIASA in the second scenario, whereas, in the first scenario the migration rates are at zero. 

AndamanandNicobarMigIIASASCE2.png

Population After Migration Scenario 2

Although migrater was not changed between the two scenarios, the migration rate and the population did change. The slight change in the first years of migration increased population sufficiently to bring Andaman and Nicobar Islands up to almost IIASA's population forecast.

Migration Scenario 3 Results

The migration rates are the same for Andaman and Nicobar Islands as they were in the second scenario.

Arunanchal Pradesh

Population

Arunanchal Pradesh's population forecast in IFs is close to IIASA's. IFs is less than IIASA by an increasing amount from about 2040 to 2080. In 2080, the difference between the two model's forecasts peaks at about a 4.3% difference. From 2080 through the end of the time horizon the difference between the two models decreases slightly to around 4%. 

ArunachalPradeshPopIIASA.png

Crude Birth Rates

Arunanchal Pradesh's CBRs in the IFs model jump up in 2014 at model initialization. The IFs model's forecasts are significantly higher than IIASA's, ranging between 18% and 36% difference. 

ArunachalPradeshCBRIIASA.png

Crude Death Rate

Arunanchal Pradesh's CDRs in IFs are greater than in IIASA's by 36% initially. Overtime, the two models become closer and closer until 2090 when IIASA's forecasts for CDR pass IFs.

Migration Scenario 1 Results

Migration Rate After Migration Scenario 1

The first time the scenario was run this province's migration data was dropped from the scenario after the scenario file was run. The cause of this error is not known, but it was remedied by copying and pasting the scenario data into another scenario file. Upon rerunning the scenario with the fixed scenario file, the migration rate is identical. 

ArunachalPradeshMigIIASASCE2.png

Population After Migration Scenario 1

Arunanchal Pradesh's population is significantly greater after the introduction of migration into the model. 

ArunanchalPradeshPopIIASASCE.png

Migration Scenario 2 Results

Births are greater in the IFs model which causes population to increase by too much when migration is introduced. Therefore, migration is removed for Arunanchal Pradesh in the second scenario. 

Migration Rate After Migration Scenario 2

ArunanchalPradeshMigIIASASCE2.png

Population After Migration Scenario 2

After the second scenario with the removal of migration rates, Arunanchal Pradesh's population is identical to the base case and close to IIASA's population forecast.

Assam

Population

The IFs model's population forecasts are slightly greater than IIASA's by less than 5% in all years. The average difference between the two models is around a 3%. AssamPopIIASA.png

Crude Birth Rates

CBRs are relatively close in the two models. The largest difference is in 2095 where IFs's population forecast is nearly 8% lower than IIASA's. AssamCBRIIASA.png

Crude Death Rates

In 2010 there is an 18% difference between IIASA and IFs's historical data. By 2015 the two models are very close and IIASA is greater than IFs until around 2070. After 2070 IFs' CDRs are greater than IIASA's by an increasing rate. From 2015 through 2100 there is not a difference between the two models that is greater than 5.5%.

Bihar

Population

Bihar is one of the largest provinces in India and IFs is forecasting greater population growth than what is seen in IIASA's forecasts by about 70 million by the end of the time horizon. In 2095, IFs forecasts Bihar's population to be about 31% greater than IIASA's forecast.

BiharPopIIASA.png

Crude Birth Rate

IFs forecast of Bihar's CBRs are greater than IIASA's. IFs forecasts rise and fall two times in the forecasts. IIASA's forecasts are smoother than IFs and steadily decline over time. In 2030 the difference between the two models is at its' greatest reaching about a 24% difference. In 2095 the difference between the two model's declines to its' lowest point at about 3% difference. 

BiharCBRIIASA.png

Crude Death Rate

In 2010 the two model's have their greatest difference, with IFs's CDR being 20% greater than IIASA's. From IFs model initialization in 2014 through 2060 the two models are quite close, with less than 10% difference in all years. After 2060, IIASA's forecasts are greater than IFs by about 10% to 13%.

IFs' forecasts of TFR for Bihar are significantly greater than IIASA's until 2045. After 2045, TFR remains flat at 1.9 births per woman through the end of the time horizon in both models. 

BiharTFRIIASA.png

Migration Scenario 1 Results 

Bihar has significant outward migration in IIASA's forecasts and this appears to be the main driver that is pushing Bihar's population forecast much higher than IIASA's. To remedy this, IIASA's migration data for Bihar was put into a scenario file using the parameter migrater.  

Below is a graph showing Bihar's migration rates from the IIASA model (in orange), the IFs provincial model without migration (in blue), and the migration scenario with migration rates from IIASA (in grey). Despite the migration data being identical in the scenario file to the IIASA data, the results from the migration scenario's run are not identical to IIASA. This graph shows migration rates in Bihar when the scenario file only had migration rates for Bihar, the rest of the provinces were not affected.

Migration Scenario Results 2

This migration scenario is the one represented in all other provinces, where all provinces have migration data from IIASA in the migrater parameter. 

Migration Rate After Migration Scenario 2

With all provinces' migration rates adjusted, Bihar responds as expected where migration rates match IIASA's.

BiharPopIIASAMgSCE.png

Migration Scenario 3 Results

Bihar is the only province that has been changed three times, and the third scenario in Bihar is from the same scenario that is referred to as Scenario 2 throughout the rest of this document. The third scenario in Bihar is labeled as SCE2​ in the graphs for consistency across scenario versions and provinces. Because the population did not significantly change between the first Bihar migration scenario and the second, net migration rates were doubled in the third migration scenario. 

Migration Rates After Scenario 3

The doubling of migration rates in 2014 shifts the migration rate line in the scenario down. After 2085, migration rates are forecast to decline to the same level that is in IIASA and the previous scenario. 

BiharMigIIASASCE2.png

Population After Migration Scenario 3

After the third migration scenario, Bihar's population forecasts have sufficiently declined to levels that are close to IIASA's population forecasts. There is a decline in population by about 80 million in 2100 from the base case to the third scenario. 

BiharPopIIASAMgSCE2.png

Migration Scenario 4 Results 

Bihar's migration scenario 4 is the equivalent of migration scenario 3 for all other provinces in India. Bihar's migration rates were unchanged in the final scenario from the previous version.

Migration Scenario 2 Results

The first scenario overshoots IIASA's population because births are greater and deaths are lower (in the earlier years) in IFs. Therefore, the migration rate in Goa is halved in the second scenario. 

Migration Rate in Migration Scenario 2

The migration rate in Goa was halved starting in 2014 in the second migration scenario. However, the first few years are close to zero after the scenario was run. These zeroes are not in the data in the scenario, rather it is some push back from within the model.
