How researchers see this paper

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

Feral swine impacts on agriculture and the environment (2004, background): “Feral swine rooting activity, digging for food with their snout, loosens the soil and accelerates erosion, sets back plant succession, reduces earthworm activity, and exacerbates exotic plant invasion (Mungall, 2001).”
Cougar Dispersal Patterns, Metapopulation Dynamics, and Conservation (2000, background): “The record distance is that of a male who dispersed 483 km from his natal area in northern Wyoming to his mortality site west of Denver, Colorado (Logan & Sweanor 2000).”
Using adaptive management to determine requirements of re‐introduced populations: the case of the New Zealand hihi (2007, unknown): “To account for uncertainty in parameter estimates and model structure (White 2000a), we obtained multiple values for λ where each vital rate was sampled from a distribution defined by its estimate and standard error.”
The concept of overgrazing and its role in management of large herbivores (2006, background): “A number of other definitions of K exist (e.g. Miller & Wentworth 2000), for example related to soil or vegetation management goals, but will not be dealt with here.”
