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

On recent interannual variability of the Arctic winter mesosphere: Implications for tracer descent (2007, background): “Randall et al. [2006] argued that an unusually strong upper-level vortex led to greater confinement of NOx in the polar night.”
Solar Influence on Global and Regional Climates (2012, methodology): “modelling of Rind et al. (1999) and analysis of pre-industrial data by Waple et al.”
Origin of energetic electron precipitation >30 keV into the atmosphere (2010, background): “Balloon experiments up to ∼300 keV show that microbursts are the main form of electron precipitation on the dayside [ Parks, 1978 ].”
Dynamics of the Earth’s Particle Radiation Environment (2009, background): “High relativistic electron precipitation, induced by the solar windmagnetospheric coupling during solar storms, is also able to affect the mesosphere and upper stratosphere (see, e.g., Randall et al. 2005; Orsolini et al. 2005).”
Geomagnetic activity and polar surface air temperature variability (2009, background): “[2] Odd nitrogen produced in the mesosphere or thermosphere by energetic particle precipitation (EPP-NOx) can be transported to the stratosphere where it chemically perturbs ozone (O3) distributions [e.g., Lopéz-Puertas et al., 2005; Randall et al., 1998, 2001, 2005; Seppälä et al., 2004, 2007].”
