In this case, it's уровень - уровень рождаемости, уровень смертности and more questionable, but still widely used уровень абортов and уровень миграции.

From:

Isn't уровень рождаемости/смертности a pleonasm?

From:

He's right, don't worry

From:

Whatever it is, it is widely used, on the level of a professional term. Most of professional terms are not very nice from the point of view of "normal" language.

From:

Isn't it misused in its very capacity as a professional term?

From:

Well, you would not insist on using the correct кОмпас instead of seaman's компАс in a book about sailing and sailors, wouldn't you? This is exactly the case.

From:

I wouldn't.

But personally, I wouldn't want to even open a book about the kind of people who say «уровень рождаемости».

From:

I personally would not even bother to learn what the statistics is, but then what?

From:

Sailors are more entitled to incorrect language than are statistics people, says I.

Instead of nitpicking about what other people say, why don't you try to be a little more constructive? Give your opinion of what you think is right, and leave it at that. This is for a professional presentation, so I think the professional style, "improper" as it may be, is best in this case.

From:

Okay, time for my Gandalf moment. (in a thundering voice) There's nothing unprofessional about just "рождаемость" and "смертность". It's both professional and correct. The only excuse for "уровень рождаемости" and "уровень смертности", which are strictly speaking levels of levels and rates of rates, is that alleged professionals allegedly use it a lot. Which, if true, only goes to show that they're terribly verbose people. Do not take me for some conjuror of cheap tricks, please drive home safely, etc.

Russian loves to use pleonasms in official speech.

From:

I am afraid you had no idea how badly spoilt the statistics people could be these days.

From:

I didn't mean that. I'm okay with компАс because it has a sea feel to it that no – er – statistics feel can quite match.

From:

уровень рождаемости
уровень смерти

etc

From:

Уровень смерти?!!!

I'm somehow not convinced when you tell me not to worry.

From:

ой, смертности конечно же, опечатался =)

From:

The first two are рождаемость and смертность. I'm not sure there's a fixed expression for the other two.

From:

Уровень рождаемости and уровень смертности are stylistically terrible, but widely used professional terms (http://bd.fom.ru/report/whatsnew/d071222/).

From:

Do we have to teach stylistically terrible Russian?

From:

We have to teach them what has to be used in exactly this setting. The poster obviously translates some kind of a statistics information. Statistics, being an applied branch of math science, has its own professional lingo. It is incorrect to apply "normal" language to the situation when a porfessional lingo must be applied. That's pretty much it.

the keyword would be уровень (more universal) or темпы (except for abortions, simply количество would be more appropriate here).
