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

Fitting and goodness-of-fit test of non-truncated and truncated power-law distributions (2012, methodology): “In this cases it is very convenient to use the so-called logarithmic binning (Hergarten, 2002; Pruessner, 2012).”
Scaling properties of rainfall induced landslides predicted by a physically based model (2013, methodology): “…are revealed by power law dependencies, and are considered evidence of the critical state of landscape systems dominated by slope wasting phenomena (Hergarten, 2002; Turcotte et al., 2002) It is known that, regardless of the physiographic or the climatic settings, the probability (or fre- quency)…”
25 Years of Self-Organized Criticality: Solar and Astrophysics (2014, background): “…(auroras, substorms; see review by Sharma et al. (2014), in geophysics (earthquakes, mountain and rock slides, snow avalanches, forest fires; see Hergarten 2002 and review by Hergarten in this volume), in biophysics (evolution and extinctions, neuron firing, spread of diseases), in laboratory…”
The physics of earthquakes (2001, background): “Self-organized criticality is when a system evolves to the critical state naturally without any dependence on the initial conditions or tunable parameters (Bak et al 1988, Hergarten 2002).”
