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

Seasonal and interannual effects of hypoxia on fish habitat quality in central Lake Erie (2011, background): “2003) and community-level characteristics such as species richness (Ludsin et al., 2001).”
The social, economic, and environmental importance of inland fish and fisheries (2016, background): “Around the globe, inland fish populations and species assemblages often indicate changes in nutrient inputs to their watersheds (Ludsin et al. 2001).”
Thresholds in Ecological and Social–Ecological Systems: a Developing Database (2004, background): “Mass mortality of the tropical seagrass Thalassia testudinum in Florida Bay (USA).”
Homogenization of Freshwater Faunas (2002, background): “…exotic species such as common carp and goldfish; recovery of native species such as burbot Lota lota, lake whitefish Coregonus clupeaformis, and several minnow species and the reappearance of nine aquatic plants species thought to have been extirpated (Stuckey & Moore 1995, Ludsin et al. 2001).”
Hypoxia affects spatial distributions and overlap of pelagic fish, zooplankton, and phytoplankton in Lake Erie (2009, unknown): “Indeed, several cool-water benthic fisheries collapsed during the height of eutrophication in the mid-20th century, perhaps in part due to hypoxia that reduced access to thermal habitat and prey resources required for growth (Leach and Nepszy, 1976; Ludsin et al., 2001).”
