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

Sustainable harvesting of wild seaweed resources (2017, background): “Some works have examined the effects of harvesting on associated habitats and organisms (Lorentsen et al., 2010; Stagnol et al., 2013, 2016), but empirical studies on this topic are still scarce and controversial for many of the commercially explored species and regions in Europe.”
Production and fate of kelp detritus (2012, unknown): “Kelp populations require more than 6 yr to recover from canopy harvesting (Lorentsen et al. 2010), and declines in the order of decades are documented following overfishing of apex predators and trophic cascades, repeated El Niño events, or freshwater and sewage run-off (Mann 1977, Dayton et al.…”
REVIEW: Potential effects of kelp species on local fisheries (2015, background): “positive, as observed for gadoids whose abundance was much larger in kelp unharvested areas 306 compared to harvested areas (Lorentsen et al. 2010).”
The role of kelp species as biogenic habitat formers in coastal marine ecosystems (2017, background): “This level of 785 disturbance has also been shown to impact the abundance of some fish species, as well as impact on 786 the foraging behaviour of some seabirds (Lorentsen et al., 2010).”
