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

The soundscape of the Anthropocene ocean (2021, background): “Despite this progress, the paradigm that soundscapes can be used as proxies for ecosystem health, developed for terrestrial ecosystems ( 41 ), has been applied to the marine environment with only limited success [e.g., ( 42 , 43 )].”
Coral reef species assemblages are associated with ambient soundscapes (2015, background): “59 Spatially, Radford et al. (2010) found spectral and temporal differences between nearby 60 sandy, macroalgal- and urchin-dominated habitats.”
Celestial patterns in marine soundscapes (2014, background): “It is even possible that larvae could discriminate between unique sound signatures associated with specific habitats (Radford et al. 2010, 2014, McWilliam & Hawkins 2013) and make settlement choices accordingly.”
Juvenile coral reef fish use sound to locate habitats (2011, background): “Furthermore, recent research has shown that different habitats in shallow coastal environments can be characterised by the acoustic signals they produce, due to the differences in biological noises generated by the fauna residing in the habitats ( Radford et al. 2010; Kennedy et al. 2010).”
