The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Models and estimators linking individual-based and sample-based rarefaction, extrapolation and comparison of assemblages (2012, background): “Because ants are colonial and the colony is the unit of reproduction, scoring each sampling unit for presence or absence of each species makes more sense than using abundance data (Gotelli et al. 2011).”
A comparison of 3 types of green roof as habitats for arthropods (2013, methodology): “Thus, we adopted a standardized hand-sampling that has been shown to be less time-consuming and less laborintensive than other methods such as pitfall traps (Gotelli et al., 2011).”
