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

Turbidity Currents and Their Deposits (2010, background): “An understanding of the interaction of gravity and turbidity currents with the background stratification and the related internal wave fields is just beginning to emerge (Maxworthy et al. 2002).”
Axisymmetric gravity currents in a porous medium (2005, background): “…to the effects of rotation (Ungarish & Huppert 1998), and flows over porous media (Acton, Huppert & Worster 2001; Thomas, Marino & Linden 2004), into stratified ambients (Ungarish & Huppert 2002; Maxworthy et al. 2002) and over variable topography (Monaghan & Huppert 2005) have been investigated.”
An Introduction to Gravity Currents and Intrusions (2009, result): “Patterson et al. (2006) also presented NS simulations which predicted similar results, but with smaller speeds than recorded in the experiments.”
Gravity currents: a personal perspective (2006, background): “The solid curves are the theoretical evaluations of Ungarish & Huppert (2002) to be compared with the dashed curves which are the experimental results determined by Maxworthy et al. (2002) .”
