Mansor A, Crawley MJ, 2011, Current Status of Mimosa pigra L. Infestation in Peninsular Malaysia., Trop Life Sci Res, Vol: 22, Pages: 37-49, ISSN: 1985-3718
The status and distribution of Mimosa pigra L., a semi-aquatic invasive species in Peninsular Malaysia, were continuously assessed between 2004 and 2007. This assessment investigated its population stand density and related weed management activities. In total, 106 sites of 6 main habitat types i.e., construction site (CS), dam/ reservoir (DM), forest reserve (FR), plantation (PL), river bank/waterway (RB) and roadside (RD) were assessed, and 55 sites were recorded with M. pigra populations. A CS is the most likely habitat to be infested with M. pigra (16 out of 18 assessed sites have this weed), whereas none of the FR visited were found to harbour M. pigra. In terms of population stand density, 41 populations were in the low range of stand density (individual plant of ≤5 m(-2)), compared to only 9 populations in the high range of stand density (individual plant of >10 m(-2)). In general, the current impact of M. pigra infestation on natural habitats is relatively low, as its distribution is only confined to disturbed areas. However, continuous monitoring of this weed species is highly recommended, especially in the riparian zone and wetland habitats.

Jones OR, Pilkington JG, Crawley MJ, 2006, Distribution of a naturally fluctuating ungulate population among heterogeneous plant communities: ideal and free?, Journal of Animal Ecology, Vol: 75, Pages: 1387-1492
1. Herbivore distribution is often assumed to follow the ideal free distribution (IFD) model. This assumes that organisms are omniscient about forage quality and availability within the area available to them and are free to move, with negligible cost, throughout this environment. If this were the case we would expect that, at lowest densities, all animals would be found in the best habitat patches, with less desirable habitats being occupied stepwise as population density increases. We test this using data from a naturally fluctuating population of feral Soay sheep. 2. We show that, although the distribution of individuals is correlated positively with food quality, in line with patterns reported for hill sheep in Scotland, their distribution does not conform to the predictions of the IFD model. We argue that it is the dynamic nature of their food resource that causes this departure from the predictions of the IFD model and make the case that the IFD model, in its unmodified form, is inappropriate for use in modelling distribution among patches containing dynamic resources.

A demographic understanding of population dynamics requires an appreciation of the processes influencing survival-a demographic rate influenced by parameters varying at the individual, maternal and cohort level. There have been few attempts to partition the variance in demography contributed by each of these parameter types. Here, we use data from a feral population of Soay sheep (Ovis aries), from the island of St Kilda, to explore the relative importance of these parameter types on early survival. We demonstrate that the importance of variation occurring at the level of the individual, and maternally, far outweighs that occurring at the cohort level. The most important variables within the individual and maternal levels were birth weight and maternal age class, respectively. This work underlines the importance of using individual based models in ecological demography and we, therefore, caution against studies that focus solely on population processes.
