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

Temperature-driven phenological changes within a marine larval fish assemblage (2010, background): “Equivalent phenological changes have also been reported from other ecosystem components, for example, interannual variability in breeding success of seabirds has been linked to the annual timing of key prey species abundance (Bertram et al., 2001; Hipfner, 2008; Wanless et al., 2008).”
Changes in Canadian seabird populations and ecology since 1970 in relation to changes in oceanography and food webs (2009, background): “For Common Murre the advance in timing of breeding was even more dramatic with chicks not hatching until early August in the 1980s, but advancing by more than a month by the 1990s (Hipfner and Greenwood 2008).”
Impacts of climate change on marine organisms and ecosystems. (2009, background): “Changes in the timings of plankton blooms [87], including temperature-driven phenological changes [88], may lead to breaks in food chains [89,90], and wholesale departures of prey species in the face of warming may impact remaining predators, including commercially important fish species [91].”
Phenological trends and trophic mismatch across multiple levels of a North Sea pelagic food web (2012, background): “Several studies have suggested that mismatch may be an im - portant determinant of fitness in seabirds (e.g. Durant et al. 2006, Hipfner 2008, Wata - nuki et al. 2009).”
