Abbreviation: AAPC: Average annual percent change;

^: AAPC were statistically significant (p-value<0.05).

¹: We assumed that non-Qatari population growth was similar to Qatar’s population (total) growth,[4] as this population constituted the vast majority of Qatar’s total population (73% in 1986[26] to 90% in 2016[5]). For Qatari population, we assumed constant increase in population between 1989–2015 as observed between 2006–2014.[25]

²: Population growth for the period 1990–1995.
