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

Ecosystem impacts of hypoxia: thresholds of hypoxia and pathways to recovery (2011, background): “The separation between normal oxic, hypoxic and anoxic waters creates a temporal and spatial mosaic of habitats with recovery partly dependent upon the available pool of mobile colonists (Norkko et al 2006).”
Sensitivity of amphipods to sewage pollution (2012, background): “Conversely, Norkko et al. (2006) described the opportunistic behaviour of this species following experimental defaunation on an intertidal location on the Swedishwest coast.”
Macrobenthic recovery from hypoxia in an estuarine tidal mudflat (2008, background): “Recovery rate is dependent on the scale of disturbance in intertidal habitats (Zajac et al. 1998, Norkko et al. 2006).”
Benthic community-mediated sediment dynamics (2008, background): “It can be achieved by applying phylum-selective poisons (Underwood & Paterson 1993, de Deckere et al. 2001), or by inducing severe hypoxia (Beukema et al. 1999, Norkko et al. 2006).”
