We are starting a research work (PhD) on the invasion of agricultural
landscape in a tropical island (Reunion Island - Indian Ocean) by Acacia
mearnsii with special focus on dispersion process (phenology, seed-bank
predation), consequences on landscape biodiversity (using bird
communities, spiders or bugs) and acacia mearnsii stand management and
use by farmers.
Therefore I'm interested by all kind of informations (books, journal
articles, research projects...) on relationships between Acacia mearnsii
population dynamics and landscape management problems.
Thank you
