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

A paradox of trout invasions in North America (2008, background): “Salmonids like these trout are an ideal group for testing hypotheses about factors driving invasions because they have been introduced repeatedly almost everywhere that habitat was deemed suitable, and their ecology and evolution are well understood (Peterson and Fausch 2003; Hendry and Stearns 2004”
Chinook salmon invade southern South America (2008, background): “Finally, this species is a longstanding influential model system elsewhere (e.g., Hendry and Stearns 2004) providing excellent basis to impel advanced future research.”
Synthesis, part of a Special Feature on Pathways to Resilient Salmon Ecosystems Freshwater Ecosystems and Resilience of Pacific Salmon: Habitat Management Based on Natural Variability (2009, background): “The natural range of a particular habitat feature, e.g., large wood abundance, is illustrated in the upper left graph, in which the distribution of values for that feature in a largely pristine watershed might approximate a bellshaped curve with a relatively wide range (e.g., see Fox 2001).”
Strategies for conserving native salmonid populations at risk from nonnative fish invasions: tradeoffs in using barriers to upstream movement (2006, background): “Recent work suggests that the evolution or re-expression of migratory life histories and colonization of newly accessible habitats can occur quickly (Hendry and Stearns 2004, Quinn 2005).”
