The paper is concerned with a class of stochastic reaction-diffusion equations arising from a spatial population growth model in random environments. Under some sufficient conditions, Theorem 3.1 shows that the equation has a unique positive global solution in space $H^1(D)$. Then it is proven in Theorem 4.1 that the solution, as the population size, is ultimately bounded in the mean $L^2-$norm as the time tends to infinity. An almost-sure upper bound is also obtained for the long run time-average of the exponential rate of the population growth in $L^2-$norm together with the $L^p-$moment of the population size with $p \geq 2.$ It is also shown in Theorem 4.3 that there is a unique invariant measure that leads to a stationary population distribution. For illustration, an example is given.
Keywords: positive solutions, ultimate bound, Stochastic reaction-diffusion equation, spatial population growth, invariant measure..
