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

A Classification of Ecological Boundaries (2003, background): “However, if ecologists are to use boundary to mean different things on different occasions, it is important to specify the concept of boundary that is being used (Cadenasso et al. 2003).”
A PREDICTIVE MODEL OF EDGE EFFECTS (2004, background): “These changes may be due to abiotic or biotic changes in the environment (Murcia 1995) caused by ecological flows across edges (Cadenasso et al. 2003), changes in interspecific interactions (Fagan et al. 1999), or a combination of these and other factors.”
Species' geographic ranges and distributional limits: pattern analysis and statistical issues (2005, neutral): “Similarly, the delineation of ecological boundaries to better understand the relationship between boundary structures and their functions is an active research area in ecology (Cadenasso et al. 2003, Fagan et al. 2003, Strayer et al. 2003).”
Asymmetrical responses of forest and “beyond edge” arthropod communities across a forest–grassland ecotone (2014, positive): “We expected a progressive decrease in both the variables from the innermost to the outermost habitat plots, following a sigmoid trend (Downie et al. 1996; Cadenasso et al. 2003; Ries and Sisk 2004).”
