Is the logistic map only useful for theoretically exploring nonlinear dynamical systems, or can it be applied to real-world scenarios in any practical way?

Are there any real-world applications for the logistic map (as defined in chaos theory)?

Not sure if this answers your question and you must have seen this before. If you have read the Wikipedia article for this closely
reproduction where the population will increase at a rate proportional to the current population when the population size is small.
starvation (density-dependent mortality) where the growth rate will decrease at a rate proportional to the value obtained by taking the theoretical "carrying capacity" of the environment less the current population.
This quality of unpredictability and apparent randomness led the logistic map equation to be used as a pseudo-random number generator in early computers.
This article is very helpful.
If you only want the practical applications then skip ahead to the Butterfly Effect in this article.
