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

Analysis of whale shark Rhincondon typus aggregations near South Ari Atoll, Maldives Archipelago (2010, methodology): “We used public-domain, pattern-recognition software (I 3S, Interactive Individual Identification System) to evaluate matches among photographs (Van Tienhoven et al. 2007).”
Abundance and demography of a seasonal aggregation of zebra sharks Stegostoma fasciatum (2008, background): “These include white sharks Carcharodon carcharias (Domeier & Nasby-Lucas 2007), whale sharks Rhincodon typus (Meekan et al. 2006, Speed et al. 2007), nurse sharks Ginglymostoma cirratum (Castro & Rosa 2005) and grey nurse sharks Carcharias taurus (Van Tienhoven et al. 2007).”
Scarring patterns and relative mortality rates of Indian Ocean whale sharks (2008, methodology): “…Authors Journal compilation # 2008 The Fisheries Society of the British Isles, Journal of Fish Biology 2008, 72, 1488–1503 Images were matched using the software I3S (Van Tienhoven et al., 2007) and visual confirmation following guidelines for use on whale sharks outlined in Speed et al. (2007).”
Spotting the difference: towards fully-automated population monitoring of African penguins Spheniscus demersus (2010, background): “To date, only a few systems exist to aid the visual fingerprinting of animals in a wild population (e.g. Arzoumanian et al. 2005, Speed et al. 2007, Van Tienhoven et al. 2007, Gamble et al. 2008).”
