The net reproduction rate is the per-generation growth rate when current age-specific fertility and mortality continue and there is no net migration. It is the average number of daughters a newborn girl will bear during her life, allowing for the chance she dies before the end of the childbearing years, so a value of one means the generation just replaces itself.
An annual excess of births over deaths is the rate of natural increase, a decennial growth rate is a different measure again, and the annual rate at which women replace themselves describes a yearly rate when the NRR is a per-generation one.
