This page is preliminary and need a better introduction.(Sfoucher 21:47, 6 March 2007 (UTC))[reply]

The introduction states that the Hubbert curve is the derivative of the Verhulst curve, which in turn (as far as I can tell from trawling the net, though I know of no authoritative reference) is the same as the Logistic curve. This doesn't look right to me, as the Logistic curve shows Q versus time, while Hubbert's curve shows the derivative P against Q rather than time. Hanche (talk) 20:22, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
