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

Water, Melting, and the Deep Earth H 2 O Cycle (2006, background): “…of the wedges, which in turn depends on the rheological effects of temperature and fluid on peridotite as well as the amount of viscous coupling between the wedges and the underlying subducting slabs, all topics of current research (Hirth & Kohlstedt 2003, Kelemen et al. 2003, van Keken 2003).”
Constraints on the depths and temperatures of basaltic magma generation on Earth and other terrestrial planets using new thermobarometers for mafic magmas (2009, background): “…are higher than geodynamic models of subduction using iso-viscous rheology in the mantle wedge (Peacock and Wang, 1999), but similar to the higher mantle wedge temperatures found in models using temperature-dependent rheologies (van Keken et al., 2002; Kelemen et al., 2003; Peacock et al., 2005).”
