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

Quantifying the strength of migratory connectivity (2017, background): “The events and conditions that populations are exposed to throughout the year have consequences for many biological processes, including migration schedules, reproductive success, survival and abundance, range limits, and natal dispersal (Esler, 2000; Finch et al., 2017; Hostetler et al., 2015; Marr”
Predictors of resistance to brood parasitism within and among reed warbler populations (2008, methodology): “The metapopulation approach has been applied by both ecologists and conservationists as a tool for understanding the dynamics and local adaptations in subdivided populations (e.g., Hanski and Thomas 1994; Esler 2000; Hokit et al. 2001; Marsh and Trenham 2001; Robert et al. 2003).”
Multicolony tracking reveals the winter distribution of a pelagic seabird on an ocean basin scale (2012, unknown): “Consequently, there are important management implications: where individuals from different breeding areas share wintering grounds, vulnerability to local anthropogenic impacts may increase (Esler, 2000).”
Population dynamics in migratory networks (2010, background): “However, new theory is needed for migratory animals since, despite some similarities between metapopulation models and migratory networks ( Esler 2000 ), there are fundamental differences.”
