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

Timing is crucial for consequences of migratory connectivity (2016, background): “Billions of animals migrate across the globe every year and it is widely acknowledged that the use of different sites has consequences for migrant fitness and the dynamics of their populations as well as for the communities visited (Webster and Marra 2005, Marra et al. 2010, Bauer and Hoye 2014).”
Biological carryover effects: linking common concepts and mechanisms in ecology and evolution (2014, unknown): “(For recent reviews in invertebrates, see review by Marshall and Morgan 2011; for recent reviews in vertebrates, see reviews by Webster and Marra 2005, Norris and Marra 2007, Harrison et al. 2011.)”
Travelling to breed (2006, background): “Since the energetic and nutrient requirements for successful breeding come hard on the heels of the costs of migration, the critical role that spring stopover sites play in the annual cycle has become a focus of investigation (Webster et al. 2002; Drent et al. 2003; review Webster and Marra 2005).”
STABLE ISOTOPES AND THE DETERMINATION OF AVIAN MIGRATORY CONNECTIVITY AND SEASONAL INTERACTIONS (2005, background): “…122 No. 4 October 2005 F , researchers interested in factors that infl uence the fi tness of migratory birds have realized that events occurring at times and locations outside the breeding season can infl uence ultimate fecundity and recruitment (reviewed by Webster and Marra 2005).”
