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

Food availability and foraging near human developments by black bears (2013, background): “Indeed, other studies report that abundance and spatial distribution of resources can influence bear behavior and habitat selection (Bastille-Rousseau et al. 2011; Mitchell and Powell 2007).”
Memory keeps you at home: a mechanistic model for home range emergence (2009, background): “For example, recent non-movement based mechanistic home-range models ( Mitchell and Powell 2004, 2007 ) have shown that explicit considerations of patch choice behavior need to be included in mechanistic home-range models.”
Low site fidelity and home range drift in a wide-ranging, large Arctic omnivore (2009, background): “…resources, exclusive use of defended areas relaxes and animals must venture into neighbouring areas to effectively maximize resource acquisition (Wiens 1976; Maher & Lott 1995; Mitchell & Powell 2007); however, shifting into a new area requires that the associated cost be low (Baker et al. 2000).”
