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

Large-scale bird-movement patterns evident in eastern Australian atlas data (2002, background): “Consequently, lists of mobile (as opposed to purely sedentary species) can be compiled (e.g. Chan 2001), but the spatial and temporal patterns of the movements of such species remain poorly understood.”
A matter of timing: changes in the first date of arrival and last date of departure of Australian migratory birds (2006, background): “A large number of Australian species are partial migrants (Chan, 2001), and many exhibit complex migratory pathways (Griffioen & Clarke, 2002).”
Temporal variation in bird assemblages: How representative is a one-year snapshot? (2005, background): “Movement strategies of many Australian birds are not easily categorized because little is known of their large-scale movements (Griffioen & Clarke 2002) and movement strategies of many species differ among populations (Chan 2001).”
Bird migration in the southern hemisphere: a review comparing continents (2008, background): “For these reasons, various authors have suggested that selection for migration is weaker (or at least different) and therefore partial migration is particularly common in austral migrants (e.g. Rappole 1995; Chan 2001).”
Australian waterbirds – time and space travellers in dynamic desert landscapes (2010, unknown): “About 40% of the Australian avifauna shows somemigratory behaviour that varies greatly within and among species and populations (Chan 2001).”
