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

Effects of biological invasions on forest carbon sequestration (2010, background): “…may get a double dose of invasive species, as opening of the canopies due to invasion by the hemlock woolly adelgid facilitates invasion by exotic plants (Eschtruth et al., 2006), which in turn interact with native herbivores to control plant community composition (e.g. Baiser et al., 2008).”
Effects of abundant white-tailed deer on vegetation, animals, mycorrhizal fungi, and soils (2014, background): “Heavy deer browsing can lead to dominance by browse-tolerant or avoided plant species (Horsley et al., 2003; Gill and Morgan, 2010), increased spread of invasive species (Baiser et al., 2008), and alteration of forest succession (Côté et al., 2004).”
