- Environmental heterogeneity, bird-mediated directed dispersal, and oak woodland dynamics in Mediterranean Spain (2007, methodology): “Spatial structure in the observed and simulated distributions was quantified using a modification of the spatial covariance functions given in Purves and Law (2002).”
- Habitat Selection at Multiple Scales (2009, background): “The consequences of organisms selecting at different scales for community assembly may be far reaching (Purves & Law, 2002).”
- Species associations in an old‐growth temperate forest in north‐eastern China (2010, unknown): “Spatial patterns and processes are especially important for plants because they cannot move from one environment to another and they interact mainly with their close neighbours (i.e. the ‘plant’s eye view’ of the community; Turkington & Harper 1979; Purves & Law 2002).”
- A comparison of methods for the statistical analysis of spatial point patterns in plant ecology (2006, background): “6, 7). Recent competition theory emphasises spatial interactions and the ‘plant’s-eye view’ ( Purves and Law 2002 ), and considerable theoretical research has highlighted that mean-field approaches are not always appropriate for describing ecological processes (e.g.”
- Competition among plants: Concepts, individual-based modelling approaches, and a proposal for a future research strategy (2008, background): “There are, however, some approaches that indirectly estimate plants’ zones of influence by evaluating the effects of neighbours on the fitness of the target individuals (e.g., Damgaard et al., 2002; Purves and Law, 2002 and Schneider et al., 2006).”
- POPULATION GROWTH IN SPACE AND TIME: SPATIAL LOGISTIC EQUATIONS (2003, background): “Empirical studies have shown that the ‘‘plant’s-eye view’’ of its population density can be far from the density averaged over space (Turkington and Harper 1979, Mahdi and Law 1987, Purves and Law 2002a).”
- Weak and variable relationships between environmental severity and small‐scale co‐occurrence in alpine plant communities (2007, background): “Although the attribution of patterns to processes is generally problematic, these suggestions are in line with theoretical considerations and empirical evidence that small-scale spatial patterning is related to interactions among plants (e.g. Purves & Law 2002; Llambi et al .”
- Seed mass and the competition/colonization trade‐off: competitive interactions and spatial patterns in a guild of annual plants (2004, methodology): “of population-level coefficients found by Rees et al. (1996) in a study of similar species in sand dunes.”
