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

Measuring and modelling biodiversity from space (2008, background): “The ability to monitor the areas outside formally protected reserves is also attractive as these may have a major role to play in conserving biodiversity (Putz et al., 2001).”
Supply of tree-holes limits nest density of cavity-nesting birds in primary and logged subtropical Atlantic forest (2010, background): “, 2009), and is one of the few widespread economic activities to retain much of the cover and biodiversity of native forests (Johns, 1992; Nichols et al., 2007; Putz et al., 2001; Wells et al., 2007).”
Orangutan population density, forest structure and fruit availability in hand-logged and unlogged peat swamp forests in West Kalimantan, Indonesia (2003, neutral): “Because of the lack of heavy machinery, hand-logging is considered less destructive to forest structure than mechanized logging (Ayres and Johns, 1987; Cannon et al., 1994; Grieser Johns, 1997; Putz et al., 2001).”
Effects of disturbance intensity on species and functional diversity in a tropical forest (2012, background): “Journal of Ecology © 2012 British Ecological Society management has been proposed as an alternative to other types of land use, because it provides forest resources while potentially maintaining biodiversity (Putz et al. 2001).”
